About

Promenades, Piers, Punch and Judy - all essential elements of the British seaside resort. You can find these and much more in Llandudno on the North Wales coast.

Discover why the marshland behind Llandudno Bay was chosen for a new seaside town intended to rival the great resorts of the Mediterranean.

This is a 3 mile easy self-guided audio trail created by the Royal Geographic Society with IBG.

Walk along broad avenues and the curved seafront to appreciate how the design of the town was carefully planned. Admire elegant hotels and find out about the regulations that controlled the size and design of buildings. Enjoy a quiet stroll in well-tended gardens and the thrill of going on the pier.

Llandudno attracted wealthy clientele who came to stay in exclusive hotels for the season, as well as ordinary families from the industrial cities who came for their annual holidays year after year.

While cheap package holidays threatened many British seaside resorts, find out how Llandudno has adapted to the changing circumstances while maintaining its character.
