Lovely beach, park at the top of the village and walk down, beach car park is a problem and people were getting fined. Well worth a visit

A small sandy beach that you can reach from the other beach (Llangrannog) at low tide or from the coastal path by the coastal path. You can spend weeks in this part of Wales and it will never be boring. Walks along the coast from beach to beach and between the cliffs will complete the day perfectly

Lovely little beach - great for taking the family. Big incline to climb or descend if you park up the top car park but well worth it for the beach. Few cafes and a couple of pubs for refreshments etc.

Lovely little coastal village with nice beaches, best beach just around the headland but steep uneven steps to go down to get there.
