Porthmadog Harbour Town

Highlight • Viewpoint

Porthmadog is simply a busy hub, a gateway to the Llyn Peninsula and Snowdonia National Park. It is a lovely harbour town with a gorgeous mountain backdrop. It also has a good range of shops and attractions including nearby Portmeirion, a narrow-gauge railway, a normal railway and guess what...an excellent hands-on railway museum!
