Beaumaris sits on the eastern coast of the Isle of Anglesey, looking across the Menai Strait to the mountains of Snowdonia. Its waterfront and fine Georgian streets are dominated by the unfinished concentric Beaumaris Castle, part of Edward I’s Welsh castles and a World Heritage Site, which gives the town a striking medieval and maritime character.
Today Beaumaris combines a lively maritime scene with independent shops, galleries and visitor-oriented businesses, so tourism and local services sit alongside small-scale fishing and boating in the local economy. A strong Welsh-speaking community and active local societies keep traditions alive, making the town both a living community and a popular heritage destination in Wales.
