Rhos Point Sea Sports Centre is situated right next to Rhos Point harbour on marine drive Rhos Point Colwyn Bay and the whole area is in need of an update. Rhos point tackle and bait have been at this address for over 30 years and over the last few years have grown to include Kayak North Wales a Kayak hire, sales, and tuition centre. Rhos Point tackle and bait, a sea fishing tackle and bait supply shop, (the original business) and Pathfinder Sea Fishing Ltd, a sea fishing charter boat business (part of the original business). Conwy counil are now seeking planning and funding or so their employee tells me. But the problem we are now seeing is that when this redevelopment goes through all of this area will be flattened and new buildings erected BUT Conwy council will not guarantee that the businesses who are already established will be included in the new development and these businesses are a big part of the tourist attraction to Rhos On Sea village plus people travel many miles as well as our locals to use the tackle shop for their sea fishing needs... So we need to show Conwy county council and the local Councillors that Rhos Point Sea Sports Centre is a required asset to Rhos On Sea. So please sign our petition. If you would like anymore info please call me on 07719556092. Thanks for you time. Paul

Only reason I visit Rhos is because of the tackle shop. If it goes will carry on A55 straight past .

I have often wondered what the councils agenda is re Colwyn Bay promenade/ sea front, fishing is getting pushed further and further away from the local amenities, and to fish the night tides and stay over you are pushed well out of town, please don't lose the one thing that brings me back there the fantastic tackle and bait shop at Rhos point.

most sea side resorts have a sea fishing shop to cater for the fisherman and children who go crab fishing on the jetties plus the fishing trips its part of a seaside resort.

It will be a sad day if we lose Rhos Point Sea sport centre as well as being a good sea sports centre it is also a known landmark and good information on local sea state is available Mr T Nicholson

This shop must not be allowed to close down. People from all over the country come to this shop to buy bait, and go out fishing on his boats. People from the midland and other areas get the opportunity to go out to sea on a boat and fish, it also brings much revenue to the town. .We have enough shops closing down due to the lack of customers why shut down a happy business. Conwy think again.

We have run the Bryn Holcombe Hotel in Colwyn Bay for over 30 years, and we know how important it is to visitors to Rhos on sea and Colwyn Bay to have facilities such as Rhos Point Sea Sports Centre. The centre will compliment the new Porth Eirias, making the Bay of Colwyn a true watersports centre. Paul has worked hard to build up his businesses at Rhos Point and deserves support not closure

There's loads of places that need attention a revamping something new but this ain't broke so don't try to fix it !!!!!!

We need the fishing shop. How can they take someone's business, and lively hood off these hard working people.
