Moelfre Seawatch Centre

One of the highpoints of the museum, a real lifeboat

The Seawatch Centre in the small picturesque harbour village of Moelfre is a reminder of the island's rich maritime history and the importance of the ever present sea for the people of Anglesey.

Children in particular will marvel at the prospect of climbing aboard a real 20th century lifeboat.

Come to Moelfre Seawatch

Around the lifeboat, you can learn about the bravery of Coxswain Richard Evans who was awarded two gold medals for saving the lives of the crews of two ships.

You can also learn about the wonderful array of maritime wildlife to be found in these coastal waters.

Anglesey Shipwrecks

1859: The Royal Charter sank off the coast of Anglesey during one of the fiercest storms of the century. The men of Moelfre formed a human chain to try to save those on board. However, 454 people died in the disaster.
