The very tip of this stretch of coast is called Black point and just behind you can see Puffin island. This pebble beach is fairly untypical for Anglesey which has normally more sandy or rocky beaches. Due to the pebbles the rock pools you can find are very smooth. This is a view from within one of those rock pools.
