Newport beach
10 Kazimir Radic

This beach is truly splendid and conveniently accessible from the carpark. For those who prefer to park directly on the beach, that option is also available. A delightful café is situated nearby, offering a selection of hot beverages, scrumptious cakes, sandwiches and crisps. They also stock wetsuits, buckets and spades, as well as other beach essentials. The restrooms are clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable experience for all visitors.

Traeth Llyfn
10 Mateusz Wronski.

This beach is simply stunning, with its pristine sands and crystal clear waters. However, be warned that sometimes you may come across some rather lazy seals lounging around. It's best to give them their space and admire them from afar. And if you want to access the beach, be prepared to use the stairs – it's the only way down. But trust me, the views are well worth the effort!

Pwllgwaelod beach
10 Kai Liang

This charming beach may be petite, but its limited parking creates a peaceful atmosphere that is truly delightful. Take a leisurely stroll around Dinas Head and bask in the breathtaking scenery, spanning 2.6 miles. Alternatively, enjoy a 10-minute walk on a smooth tarmac path to reach Cwm Yr Eglwys. Don't miss out on the scrumptious seafood options and diverse drink selection at the cozy pub and cafe.
