Prestatyn is located at the northern end of the Offa's Dyke Path, although not on Offa's Dyke itself. Prestatyn also marks the eastern end of the North Wales Path, a long-distance coastal route to Bangor. Other attractions in Prestatyn include the remains of Roman baths and the nearby Neolithic mound, The Gop at Trelawnyd.
Notable people from Prestatyn include Neil Aspinall, Peggy Cummins, John Prescott, Mike Peters (The Alarm), Carol Vorderman (who was brought up in Prestatyn), Karl Wallinger (of the band World Party), author Emyr Humphreys and the leading ornithologist Jonathan Elphick. Frank Serpico, the former NYPD detective who testified against corrupt officers, settled in Prestatyn between 1974 and 1976 as part of the witness relocation program. Prestatyn hosts the qualifying tournament for many snooker tournaments at the Pontin's Holiday Centre, which was the location for a 1973 movie of the popular British TV series, On The Buses.
