With soft and golden sand, crystal-clear waters, and backed by dunes and trees, Barafundle Bay has been voted as one of the best beaches in Britain time and time again. This isolated bay is only accessible on foot. Barafundle won the Green Coast Award 2019 and Seaside Award 2019. Be aware, there are no facilities at the beach.

Barafundle has been voted as one of the best beaches in Wales. This small bay is accessible only by a half mile walk from the car park. A fairly steep flight of steps brings you down to the sand. Please note, there are no facilities here.

A beautiful place with a clean beach and crystal clear water. You can only get there on foot. I recommend, worth seeing while in this area.
