Croeso! Mae croeso cynnes Cymreig yn eich aros ar benrhyn Llyn - lle gellwch ddarganfod harddwch a heddwch unigryw - a chlywed iaith hynaf Ewrop yn cael ei siarad.

Abersoch is situated on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales and has become a very popular village seaside resort. Great beaches, internationally recognised sailing waters, pleasant climate and beautiful scenery, all set in the heartland of the Welsh language provide a special combination.

Why visit Abersoch? Abersoch is the sort of place that people return to year after year. It has a certain special something that is very difficult to describe in words. We hope this website will provide you with an insight into what makes Abersoch special and be of interest to both those who have never been here and those who are regular visitors.

More and more people are visiting Abersoch "out of season" as Abersoch is not just about summertime! More businesses in the village are remaining open longer throughout the year - including the cafes and restaurants and more of the shops. You will find that the shops often have winter sales on with bargains you would not normally find during the "season". So if you fancy getting away from all the hustle and bustle of life - maybe a weekend or day trip to Abersoch "out of season," might be the answer.

If you are lucky with the weather there are plenty of sheltered sun traps - and it is not unusual to see sunbathers on Abersoch Main Beach in mid-winter!
