One advantage of these early starts is that the drive to Anglesey is really quick as there are no other cars on the road. I parked in the small village of Rhydwyn, a mile inland from Church Bay.<\/p>\n<p>The sun was rising as I made my way along the country lanes to the coast path at Church Bay. I&#8217;d parked here as this was where the bus back would stop later in the day. The hedgerows that lined the country lanes were bedecked in the reds and blacks of ripening blackberries and the hawthorn trees were bending under the weight of bright red berries. It wasn&#8217;t fully light yet but it looked as though it was going to be a lovely day.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23035\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3150.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23035\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23035\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3150.jpg\" alt=\"Sunrise on Anglesey\" width=\"1024\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3150.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3150-200x52.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3150-500x130.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3150-720x187.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23035\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunrise on Anglesey<\/p><\/div>\n<p>At Church Bay I made my way onto the Coast Path and started climbing uphill along the cliffs past the sandy beach. The nice wide path soon turned into a narrow, rocky twisty track atop the cliffs. I was once again back onto &#8216;proper&#8217; coast path. There was no one around, just me and the birds as the path weaved it&#8217;s way along the rocky coast. The path occasionally dropped down to run along the tops of secluded rocky coves before climbing once again to the cliff tops. At times it would wind it&#8217;s way inland to negotiate steep sided gulleys cut into the cliffs by the raging sea. Today though the sea was in a quiet mood and it was quite peaceful along this stretch of Coast Path. I ran past caves and jagged headlands and then dropped down to a beach with a large rock arch that looked a little like a barrelling wave. There was a large pool behind the beach here and pheasants everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-23034 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3153.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"53\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3153-200x53.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Ynys y Fydlyn\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-23036\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3153-200x53.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3153-500x131.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3153-720x189.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3153.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-23036'>\n\t\t\t\tYnys y Fydlyn\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3158.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3158-200x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Barrelling Wave Archway\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-23038\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3158-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3158-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3158-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3158.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-23038'>\n\t\t\t\tBarrelling Wave Archway\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h2>Diversion<\/h2>\n<p>Unfortunately there was also a sign informing me that the following section of Coast Path was closed between September 14th and February 1st. The headland before me which was swathed in pine forest was private land and there was no access over the winter. I think this corresponds with pheasant shooting season too which would make sense considering the number of these birds that were here. There was a detour in place though that took me uphill and inland a little to Mynachdy Farm where it doubled back on itself to the coast.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23037\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3154.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23037\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23037\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3154.jpg\" alt=\"Diversion Sign\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3154.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3154-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3154-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3154-720x540.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23037\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Diversion Sign<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I followed the diversion and soon found myself in a farmyard that was literally ankle deep in cow poo! The path itself was also ankle deep in the stuff and continued like this for a good half mile. There was nothing for it but to wade through it. On and on it went slowly filling my shoes up and coating my legs. Finally I emerged back out onto the coast path and then could run through some fields of long grass that were wet with dew. At least this helped clean some of the mess off my shoes.<\/p>\n<h2>Rocky Coastline<\/h2>\n<p>The Coast Path now followed the Rocky Coastline of Anglesey heading East into a headwind. I had finally turned the corner at the top of Anglesey. The sea was a little rougher here as currents and the wind whipped up white-horses. The path clung to the coast line along the tops of low rocky cliffs. Once again there were some secluded, sheltered coves to run around and the path was well signposted.<\/p>\n<p>It was still quite early so the sun was only just putting in an appearance and I could just make out Wylfa Power Station in the distance.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23039\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3161.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23039\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23039\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3161.jpg\" alt=\"Wylfa in the Distance\" width=\"950\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3161.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3161-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3161-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3161-720x540.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-23039\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wylfa in the Distance<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Coast path took me out around the headland of Trwyn Celyn and then along the pebble ridge behind the lovely Cemlyn Bay.

I&#8217;m fairly certain that the nuclear power station stopped generating in 2015 and is now being &#8216;de-fuelled&#8217; and the decommissioned (which will take decades). I don&#8217;t quite know why this electrical sub-station was quite so lively in that case, but there was definitely electricity flowing through it from somewhere, and judging by the loud humming buzz and the 600,000 volt warning signs, quite a significant amount of electricity!<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-23034 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191-200x200.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Pylon\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-23048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191-160x160.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3191.jpg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-23048'>\n\t\t\t\tPylon\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3190.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3190-200x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Sub Station\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-23047\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3190-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3190-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3190-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3190.jpg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-23047'>\n\t\t\t\tSub Station\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The path then took me through a little wooded area before emerging out onto the coast again on the other side of the power station. I then followed the coast path around Wylfa Head and then pretty much back onto myself as it ran along the top of Porth yr Ogof and Porth Wylfa. There were a few signs here and there about detours to the path due to investigative work and archaeological surveys but I couldn&#8217;t quite work out where the detours went so just continued to follow the signs as best I could. The evidence of excavations were evident all along this stretch of coast though as I left Wylfa behind and headed towards Cemaes.<\/p>\n<h2>Cemaes Bay<\/h2>\n<p>The coast path eventually brought me out into the picturesque Cemaes bay. I\u00a0remember coming here on a geology field trip to look at the Gwna Melange.\u00a0The Gwna Group is considered to represent the result of an olistostrome. This is a giant underwater gravity slide, which probably occurred as a result of tectonic activity at some time after 614 million years ago. It includes clasts, at all sizes from millimetres up to a kilometre or more, of a diverse range of both sedimentary and igneous rocks. I\u00a0didn&#8217;t stop to look at them today but was pleased to see a whole collection of rocks displayed atop little plinths along the cliffs here. Geology tourism! The coast path signs were also embedded in the pavement along the back of the beach here which was a nice touch.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-5' class='gallery galleryid-23034 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3192.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3192-150x200.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Geology Trail\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-23049\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3192-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3192-360x480.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3192.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-23049'>\n\t\t\t\tGeology Trail\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3193.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3193-150x200.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Rocky Education\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-23050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3193-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3193-360x480.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3193.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-23050'>\n\t\t\t\tRocky Education\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3194.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3194-200x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Cemaes Bay Approach\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-23051\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3194-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3194-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3194-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3194.jpg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-23051'>\n\t\t\t\tCemaes Bay Approach\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3195.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"128\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3195-200x128.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Coast Path Sign\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-23052\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3195-200x128.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3195-500x320.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/IMG_3195.jpg 643w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-23052'>\n\t\t\t\tCoast Path Sign\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>With about 13 miles under my belt, I had\u00a0the option of stopping here as the bus came through Cemaes, but it wouldn&#8217;t be here for hours yet so I continued on my way.

Waves were crashing over it&#8217;s bow and spray was dashing its decks as it headed into the wind. I too was chugging along the coast by now, wishing Amlwch to be around the next corner.

At 12:35 two buses arrived and sat at the bus stop. None of these\u00a0were mine. Another guy sat there was also waiting for the number 61. At 12:45 we started wondering where our bus was, and then just as the first bus to arrive (the number 60) was about to pull away I noticed a small LED sign on it side change from 60 to 61 &#8211; It was our bus\u00a0after all, but it didn&#8217;t give us much warning about it. We managed to jump on it just before it pulled away. I was then soon back at Rhyd-wyn where I jumped in my car for the journey home. The drive home took somewhat longer than the drive there, but I was home before Anna and Morgan. Another\u00a0successful day on the Wales Coast Path, and another 21.5 miles completed. There&#8217;s still a long way to go yet though.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/734123617\/embed\/d660227685c479f4d1b4d8bbb754472b1fd06b84\" width=\"590\" height=\"405\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coast Path Vital Stats Church Bay to Amlwch Distance: 21.57\u00a0miles Elevation Gain Today: 804m Highest Elevation: 64m Time:\u00a04:31:02 Av.
