Rest Bay Beach

Highlight • Beach

Rest Bay is a sandy beach on the outskirts of Porthcawl, backed by The Royal Porthcawl Golf Club.

The beach receives a decent amount of swell, making it a good beach for surfing, as well as wind/kite surfing.

Rest Bay has a café, and the town can be reached from here along a cycle path.
