Directions to Trefor Pier North Wales

The A55 will take you onto the A487 into Caernarfon then carry on the A487 towards Porthmadog shortly afterwards the road forks at a small roundabout – follow signs for Pwhelli on the A499.

 

Carry on through a small village called Gryn Goch and then look for turn on right to Trefor. It is a small road sign so keep eyes open.

 

As you enter Trefor take the next road on the right after the bus stop signed Beach Road. It is a small triangular shaped island and you more or less turn back on yourself.

 

Follow the road down to the sea front and park in large car park on the right in front of the beach. Please be considerate when parking as the car park also serves the local residents.

 

 

Some useful information about the site.
