More about this scene

Formerly the prime harbour for the export of Welsh slate for shipment round the coast, Porthmadog is now a thriving holiday resort. This view of the harbour shows the working quayside and schooners loading slate. Beyond the harbour is the wide sandy estuary of the River Glaslyn, the treacherous Traeth Mawr.
