Am there for 2 days this weekend, purely for photography.
As usual the weather forecast is poor. Anybody got any ideas apart from Beaumaris and the bridge.

Burial chambers at Plas Newydd and Bryn celli Ddu.
Llanidan old Church in Brynsiencyn.
Bryn Gwyn Standing stones, Brynsiencyn
Caer Gybi Roman Fort, Holyhead
Hen capel Lligwy, Lligwy,
Lligwy burial chamber,
Lligwy sands
South stack for birds and views.
Amlwch port maybe?

Lots of other standing stones and old churches around on the island - have a look at an OS map for where they are.

Agree with Gwyn on all the above plus

Llanddwyn beach and island.
14/15 century St Cybi's Church in Holyhead inside the the romman fort, it should be open for the cruise ship visit.
The breakwater in Holyhead (longest in the UK)
Views from the top of the Marquess of Anglesey column.
Try this for suggestions -

If you are in or near Holyhead on Saturday the largest ship ever to dock in Holyhead is in the harbour. Can be viewed from Newry Beach or the breakwater.

How about Llanfair PG station. (mind the coach loads of tourists)

Have fun. Look forward to seeing images of my home town (alas no blue plaque yet!!!).

Cheers Gwyn, Howard.
Should be enough to keep me out of trouble
Will take the 12-24 in case I go near Llanfair PG station, but will probably try to avoid.
