South Stack, Anglesey

South Stack, Anglesey - Sea and sand
South Stack is situated at the westernmost point of Anglesey 2 miles west of Holyhead.

The cliffs contain some of the oldest rocks in Wales dating back nearly 600 million years to the Precambrian period. The extensive folds in the cliff face bear witness to some of the earth movements and forces that have shaped Wales.

More than 4,000 seabirds breed on the cliffs at South Stack each year and live pictures are relayed by CCTV to the visitor centre in Ellins Tower.
