    The pier is a great place to linger and offers a great view of the bay. When we were there, many people successfully fished crabs out of the sea.

      The pier was designed by Frederick Foster and opened in 1846. It was originally constructed of timber piles and iron girders but was rebuilt in 1872 following storm damage. In 1895 further work extended the pier to 570 feet.

      A pavilion was erected in the late 19th century and the pier was used by steamships for many years.

      After World War II some structural damage occurred and with the decline of passenger services to Liverpool it was decided to demolish the unsafe T-head structure. Beaumaris Town Council restored the pier in the 1960s at a cost of £15,000 and in 1974 it became the property of the Isle of Anglesey Parish Council.

      The landward end is in stone and includes a gift kiosk. At the seaward end there is seating, a shelter and fishing facilities. Visitors can take a ferry to Puffin Island, cruise down the Menai Strait or try deep sea fishing from three multi-purpose fishing/pleasure cruise boats that operate from the pier. Over the past few decades, the pier has been renovated and maintained many times and is now in good condition.

        Beautiful pier, well looked after and lots of seating to take a break.
