Criccieth is a popular seaside resort with a small 13th century castle, from which there are very fine views. A delicious specialty of Criccieth, which every visitor should sample, is the creamy Cadwalader's Ice Cream.
Criccieth Castle was built atop a rocky crag by Llywely the Great around 1230. It was captured and burned in 1404 by Owain Glyndwr. In its remains there are two exhibitions: "Castles of Welsh Princes" and "Gerald of Wales".
