Abersoch is a large village in the community of Llanengan in Gwynedd, Wales. Abersoch is a popular coastal seaside resort, on the east-facing south coast of the Llŷn Peninsula at the southern terminus of the A499.

Abersoch is about 7 miles (11 km) south-west of Pwllheli and 27 miles (43 km) south-west of the county town of Caernarfon. The village of Abersoch takes its name from the river, Afon Soch, which reaches the sea in the village.

Nearby Porth Neigwl, or Hell's Mouth, is also popular for surfing; it can hold large swells in the winter which can reach 5 feet (1.5m); however south-westerly prevailing winds can affect quality.

Central Abersoch has a variety of small shops as well as bars, restaurants, cafes and hotels. Boat trips around St Tudwal's Islands to see the seals and other wildlife are available from the village.

Lighthouses of England, Longstone Lighthouse, Northumberland. early 90's

This was filmed in the mid 90's and was on a few hours boat trip from Seahouses in Northumberland. It was the first time back to the Lighthouse from when I was a Keeper in the mid 70's. The light had been automated in 1990 so no more Keepers. I spent the closing years of the Lighthouse Keeper trying to record as much as possible before it was gone forever. This lighthouse was made famous by Grace Darling who along with her father rescued 9 people from the wreck of the Forfarshire. This they did by rowing out in ferocious seas and bringing the survivors back to the lighthouse.
