Calm and peaceful atmosphere. Less crowded, making it ideal for families with children. Plenty of space to play and enjoy the water safely. The water appeared cleaner than at North Shore during our visit. Free roadside parking is available in many areas near the beach, making it a convenient and budget-friendly option (availability may vary during busy periods). A perfect place to relax and enjoy the sunset.

West Shore Beach in Llandudno is a tranquil spot with golden sands, stunning sunsets, and views of Conwy Mountain ,its just 10mins walk from llandudno pier. Quieter than the North Shore, it’s ideal for walks, picnics, and a relaxing escape by the sea

Llandudno has two sides of beaches. This side, the west, has a long stretch of beach with dunes and pebbles. I was told it’s the largest beach here. It’s not developed like the main beach, no promenade or hotels or places to visit. There are just a couple cafes and a chip shop (closed bank holiday!). I last came here 10 years ago and recall it being a large and lovely sandy beach. We arrived today at 1pm and saw only pebbles 😂 however the tide was in (I’m not scientific enough to explain why it was in at this time and not when I came last time, at this time). Anyway, there were patches of sand and gradually the tide went out and behold! The sand! This side is let down by lack of places to eat (the two cafes are expensive). But, then again, that’s its charm too. I’m going to head over to the main beach. The footpath is adorned with benches to sit, there are lots of places to sunbath between the dunes, in the sand but away from sea.

As a foreigner living in Chester, this is the best place I have found so far within a 1h range. Lovely beach and views. Perfect spot to see the sunset. Llandudno offers short hikking routes great for stretching your legs and have a small taste of nature. Clean spaces everywhere and wonderful locals
