I had a wonderful time at Port Eynon Beach, where I embarked on a delightful 6-mile walk. However, I encountered a few obstacles along the footpaths due to overgrown weeds. Nevertheless, I concluded my day with a delicious serving of fish and chips, which left me feeling satisfied and content.

This beach is undoubtedly one of the cleanest I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. The experience was so delightful that I am already yearning to return. If you're fortunate enough, you may even catch a glimpse of some seals! However, it is worth noting that this beach is primarily composed of pebbles and sand.

I recently visited a beach with black sand and pebbles. The walk from the car park to the trig pillar was absolutely stunning. The public right of way route provided a glorious view of the beach.

This seaside spot is an absolute gem, and the journey to get there is just as delightful as the destination itself. The sandy shores offer an idyllic setting for a leisurely stroll with your furry friend, but be sure to heed the pooch protocol posted around the area during peak seasons. Trust us, it's worth the extra effort to enjoy this breathtaking beach.
