How to Find Us

There is no vehicular access to the Watchtower as it stands on the farthest point of Porthdinllaen head, next to the Coastal Path. After leaving your car in Morfa Nefyn at, for example, the (chargeable) National Trust Car Park between Lon Pen Rhos and Lon Golff, you walk uphill to the Golf Club. From there, pass through the kissing-gate and follow the path downhill. Ignore the turning on the right, which drops down to the beach and the famous Ty Coch Inn, head briefly uphill, then move to the left hand side of the headland and follow the Coastal Path down to the Tower which is now clearly visible ahead. The walk from parking to the Tower will take approximately 35 minutes.

About

Currently almost 60 National Coastwatch stations are operational and manned by over 2600 volunteer watchkeepers around the British Isles from Fleetwood in the North West, through Wales, to the South and East of England to Filey in North Yorkshire. 

National Coastwatch watchkeepers provide the eyes and ears along the coast, monitoring radio channels and providing a listening watch in poor visibility. They are trained to deal with emergencies offering a variety of skills and experience, and full training by the National Coastwatch ensures that high standards are met.
