Prestatyn to Mostyn via Talacre
My happy place: along the beach from Prestatyn over the dunes to Talacre lighthouse and the Point of Ayr, then on to the Duke of Lancaster at Mostyn.

I'm in my happy place on this one, running along the beach. It picks up the coastal adventure where it started, in Prestatyn, but heading east this time.
You follow the shore and the dunes to Presthaven Sands and on to the lighthouse at Talacre, then as far as the beach goes at the Point of Ayr. From there the Wales Coast Path passes the site of the old colliery and the gas terminal, goes through Ffynnongroyw and along to Mostyn Docks, then follows a track by the estuary to the Duke of Lancaster ship.
Ten and a half miles, flat, with sea air the whole way.
