Lighthouses of Wales

Trwyn-Du

The lighthouse known as Trwyn-Du is located at Pen Mon Point at the eastern end of the Menai Strait, in shallow water just offshore. It can be reached by a fifteen minute drive from Beaumaris. (Photo: Ken Trethewey, 2014)

The island close by is Puffin Island. Popular boat trips depart from the pier at Beaumaris and run past the lighthouse and the island. (Photo: Ken Trethewey, 2014)

The original cottages used by the lighthouse keepers are close by on the shore. (Photo: Ken Trethewey, 2014)
