Aberaeron
Listed under Seaside Towns in Wales, United Kingdom.
The charming town of Aberaeron is famous for its Georgian elegance with brightly painted town houses and an attractive seaside quay. This was most evident as we took a stroll out in the rather breezy weather to see the ocean and the boats. The houses surrounding the quay were lovely in all their finery of bright colours. They have a wonderful little walking map that you can use that guides you by all the famous buildings and tells you about each of them. A great walk to make room for dinner!
