Borth-y-Gest - Quiet Harbour

Borth-y-Gest is a small, quiet harbour just outside Porthmadog. The village boasts a historical significance as a site where ships were constructed before the establishment of Porthmadog. Noteworthy are the "pilot houses," positioned at the harbour's entrance, where pilots would keep watch for ships in need of their assistance. Prior to the development of Porthmadog, Borth-y-Gest served as the starting point for a significant crossing over the wide and perilous Glaslyn estuary. Local residents earned their livelihood by guiding travellers across the hazardous sands of Traeth Mawr, leading to Harlech. Nature enthusiasts can explore Parc y Borth, a local nature reserve nestled in deciduous woodland dominated by ancient Welsh oaks. The reserve is home to various wildlife, including green woodpeckers, tawny owls, and pied flycatchers, making it a delightful destination for birdwatching. On the shoreline lies another nature reserve, Pen y Banc, featuring a blend of coastal rocks, secluded sandy coves, and mixed woodland. Established in 1996, this reserve is an excellent spot for observing wading birds. The mild climate contributes to a diverse range of vegetation, from gorse and heather to blackthorn, crab apple, and birch, creating a welcoming environment that attracts many visitors to its beaches.
