About This Place

Set on Anglesey’s east coast, Benllech Beach is one of the most popular beaches on the island. It has fine golden sand and clear Blue Flag waters that are a delight for families to paddle and swim. At low tide the sand stretches for miles so there’s plenty of space for activities including swimming, building sandcastles, windsurfing, sailing and sea fishing. There are plenty of rock pools providing opportunities to see crabs, starfish and small fish up-close. --> Benllech Beach has good facilities including disabled and pushchair access. Close to the village of Llangefni, it has roadside parking (fee) with easy access to the sand. There’s also a café, toilets, beach shop and first aid point. Dogs are banned from the main beach in the summer season although there are some areas that are dog-friendly all year round. Backed by grassy cliffs, the beach has a promenade and the Isle of Anglesey Coast Path runs through Benllech village.

💡 Our Take

Looking for a paw-some beach day in Anglesey, Wales? Benllech Beach welcomes dogs year-round! The vast expanse of golden sand is perfect for zoomies. Plus, no restrictions mean ultimate freedom for your furry friend. Parking is available, and handy facilities are nearby in the village. While Benllech typically offers safe swimming, always supervise your dog near the water. This beach is especially great for energetic, larger breeds, but keep a close eye on little pups as tides can change quickly. We recommend checking tide times beforehand so you can enjoy the whole beach without getting caught out!
