Cemaes has the distinction of being the most northerly village in North Wales, just off the A5025, and is today an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that is part owned by the National Trust. Formerly a fishing village with its own fleet and boat building yards it is today a place to visit, relax and enjoy. Originally the harbour was nothing more than a shelter and by the 19th century a stone pier was added, and a new pier was completed in 1835. Around this time shipbuilding was an important activity at Cemaes and they were building ships as big as 400 tons and at the same time Cemaes was an important port. Cemaes also has the benefit of two superb beaches, Traeth Mawr and Traeth Bach which are separated by the River Wygyr and due to their unusual geographic nature one of them is usually sheltered making them popular with families who appreciate the sandy shores, Cemaes was awarded the Blue Flag in 2004 for thequality of its beaches. The town centre has a range of traditional shops and the village hall, this was given to the community by a resident who moved to Liverpool and when he returned, having made his fortune, donated the hall. Cemaes is a pretty little village and one that is sometimes overlooked – and that suits most visitors to Cemaes just fine as they appreciate this attractive little jewel.
