Tŵr Mawr lighthouse (meaning "great tower" in Welsh), on Ynys Llanddwyn on Anglesey, Wales, marks the western entrance to the Menai Strait.
The island of Ynys Llannwyn is a magical little place consisting of rolling dunes, large rock outcrops, a ruined ancient church and of course, Tŵr Mawr lighthouse which was built in 1845 and modelled on traditional Anglesey windmills. It's a very small island but there are numerous paths that take you round the sides of the island and also straight through the middle so you can spend a fair bit of time enjoying and exploring.
Word of advise; pay attention to the tide times and don't get stranded like I did! If you do there's an idiot shelter to bed down in for a few hours until the tide recedes.
