Abersoch is a small coastal resort in the heart of Welsh speaking North Wales. The year round population is small, this being swelled considerably during the tourist season (generally regarded as being from Easter to October).

Abersoch's rise in popularity as a tourist destination during the last century is due to its idyllic position and the rise of water related leisure activities - especially sailing and more recently powered craft, windsurfing and surfing. The sandy beaches and sheltered bay provide an excellent environment for these activities with well known surf beaches to be found a short distance away.

In the village itself, there is a good selection of restaurants, pubs and shops.
