'Fish and chip capital' that's perfect for tourists named top place to visit

There are few things better than tucking into a fresh tasty fish and chips on a warm night – and where better than a town known for its delicious take on the dish? The Welsh coast is famous for its rugged coastline, remote landscape and friendly charm, making it a popular spot for British staycations.

However, not all resorts are created equally. While some focus on food and culture and others on arcades and amusements, this town manages to incorporate them all. Nestled in by the sea in Conwy, Llandudno offers the quintessential British seaside experience – with a Welsh flavour.

Its pier is one of the longest in the UK and dates back to the 19th century. Aside from the stunning views, one of Llandudno’s most popular draws includes its arcade, which features penny classics as well as more modern games – perfect to keep children entertained.

If you’re something of a history buff, you’ll also be delighted to discover the ancient tunnels known as the Great Orm Mines, which date back 3500 years ago. In fact, in 2005, it was awarded the title of ‘The Largest Prehistoric Copper Mines in the World’ by the Guinness World Records Team.

They’re well-worth a visit. According to a TripAdvisor viewer: "A remarkable view into these 4000 year old mines. Take your time and follow the self-guided tour – don't just look ahead, especially when underground in the mines. Pause and look up, down and back the way you came.

They added: "The sheer extent of this ancient industry powered only by human muscle is eye opening and very well presented."

If you want to travel there, you can always get the Great Orme tram: the only cable-hauled tramway on a public road in Great Britain. It takes visitors all the way to the base of the Great Orme headland.

Of course, if you’re more of a beach-goer, there’s always West Shore Beach. The curving expansive sand gives way to the breathtaking ruggedness of the Irish Sea and offers a chance to sit back and relax.

It’s a hotspot for adventure-seekers too, as the beach is in a great location for kite surfing and even wing foiling. For those who prefer a slower pace, it also opens up onto many gorgeous coastal paths.

Of course, with all the exploring to be done, you’ll likely want to fill up on some delicious British classics. As reported by The Guardian, Llandudno has been named the fish and chips capital of North Wales.

Chish N Fips is one of the top rate fish and chips restaurants and is known for its fresh cod and mushy peas. According to one TripAdvisor reviewer: "My wife and I are fish and chip foodies. We are expert at knowing when the oil is clean, the cod is cod and fresh and the chips are from quality potatoes."
