Aberaeron, four miles north of New Quay and once a busy little harbour town. With its Georgian and picturesque appearance it's now a tourist attraction with its small shops and craft centre selling local produce. The harbour today has good launching and mooring facilities for small craft and visiting boats, a no go area for Jet Ski's so don't bring them. |

With the River Aeron running down through the Vale of Aeron to the sea at this picturesque harbour town, Aberaeron was once a busy little port. The harbour was in two half's so to speak, the north side was known as the Liverpool side as all boats came to and from Liverpool, the south side was known as the Birkenhead side as boats came to and from Birkenhead. Building of boats was also another major industry, this was undertaken on the South Beach. Today Aberaeron is a peaceful and picturesque little town with its rows of colourful houses either side of the harbour. |
A good selection of cafes, restaurants, take-a-way's and public houses serving meals, a good range of shops selling local craft's and gifts are available. Ample car parking either side of the harbour (no charge) also opposite the fire station (charge). You'll also find a very good selection of accommodation in Aberaeron ranging from Bed and Breakfast to a four star Hotel all offering excellent Welsh hospitality, food and comfort to find out more on accommodation in Aberaeron |
