Summer is synonymous with trips to the seaside and with all the glorious weather we’ve been experiencing recently a visit to the coast is a must. Naturally Blackpool, Formby Beach and Lytham St Anne’s are firm favourites among Mancs when it comes to beachside destinations.
Yet if you venture a little further afield you’ll find some scenic gems. The coastline of North Wales has dozens of beautiful beaches and coastal resorts, and at just a couple of hour’s drive from Greater Manchester it’s within easy reach.
Cross over to the Isle of Anglesey and you’ll discover the pretty village of Benllech, which has breathtaking views out to sea. It has one of the most popular beaches on the island which visitors have described as “fabulous” and “gorgeous” - and with golden powder sand nestled between green headlands it’s easy to see why.
