When we visited the beach in August it was the height of the holiday season on a hot sunny day so it was very busy however if you are willing to walk you can if you wish still find a less busy area as the beach stretches a long way from the entrance. It is owned by the National Trust and they also run the large car park which is free to members otherwise you will have to pay. It is a great beach for families, sandy with a shallow safe enclosed bay. It also has great views across Cardigan Bay and the Welsh coast and mountains. There are numerous attractive colourful beach huts lining the top edge the beach which are available for rent. For those who like to stretch their legs there are paths leading up to the headland and the steel sculptured figure that overlooks Llanbedrog beach, the current replacement for the original wooden ships figurehead that once occupied the site. There is a handy cafe at the entrance to the beach serving good food, teas coffee and ice cream and just a short way up the narrow lane that leads to the beach are some handy public toilets just before the steps that lead up to...
Read moreThis is a wonderful beach, very secluded so does not get the strong winds and the water is calm. It is perfect for families, as it is a sandy beach although there are small stones along the beach between the sand. There is a lovely walk up to the statue Tin Man with 3 paths leading up. The easiest way up is next to Plas Glyn y Weddw Gallery. The view from the top offers lovely panoramic view over the bay and it is possible to go for a long walk from there overlooking the sea.
There is a cafe next to the beach serving hot food and cocktails. The food is very tasty and the portions. Are generous. They sell icecream separately. There is another cafe pass the beach shop next to Plas Glyn y Weddw Gallery serving jacket potatoes, wraps, sandwiches and soup. There is a car park 4 min away. The way from the car park is on the staircase or on the road which is on a slope. This could be used for pushchairs. There is a toilet 2 min away...
Read moreGorgeous secluded bay now owned by The National Trust, with waters that have always seemed safe from my many visits both as a child and adult. The beach has semi precious stones and lovely brightly painted beach huts. There is a cafe called The Galley right next to the beach and there are toilets, although the toilets need some updating. The beach is accessed by either a set of stairs from the car park then down the road, or from the top of the road which winds down hill through trees and by a small running brooke, on a sunny day there is lovely dappled light coming through the trees that open up onto the gorgeous bay. I feel the beach is ideal for all ages and types, from families, kayak and canoe users to couples wanting a romantic setting. There is a walk up a steep bit of headland to a sculpture with beautiful views out from the Lleyn Peninsula, and across the local bays. It's one of my...
