Menai Strait
The Menai Strait is a narrow stretch of shallow tidal water about 25 km long, which separates the island of Anglesey from the mainland of Wales.The strait varies in width from 400 metres from Fort Belan to Abermenai Point to 1,100 metres from Traeth Gwyllt to Caernarfon Castle.The present day channel is a result of glacial erosion of the bedrock along a line of weakness associated with the Menai Strait Fault System.
