Restricted Access

No known access issues. However Anglesey Council (who manage the coastal path that passes close to the top pf the crag)  have recieved complaints from walkers, that climbers cause a hazard by belaying across the path. The neighbouring farmer has also blamed climbers for the collapse of the boundary wall, due to climbers using it to belay from. Please avoid doing this!

The land above the crag is now designated open access land.

Multiple Gul nests around the area, worth inspecting your route before commiting.

UKC Logbook Description
Following the coastline North from Fallen block Zawn you come to a large bay. At the North end of the headland (before the Zone containing the white Arch) there is a narrow rectangular steep zawn. "The Cruel Sea" is the obvious capped corner in the right wall of the zawn (looking out). It is easily approchaed at a lowish tide by descending the slabs behind the zone.
The corner is flared and doesn't provide much protection but there is a vertical crack in the right and horizontal cracks in the left that take some runners. The cap at the top is taken on the right.
