The long Victorian promenade is unspolit by the passage of time and frames a beautiful crescent bay looking out towards the Irish Sea. Llandudno Pier, which is one of the longest Victorian piers in the United Kingdom adds to the glamour of the location and is well worth a visit for beautiful views of Llandudno's bay and the Great Orme.
