Beach Overview
This small sand and shingle cove, stretches out from the dramatic cliffs and rocks that encircle the beach. A small, secluded cove that offers gloriously gentle bathing at lower tides. This small east-facing beach is to one side of Dinas Island and has a stream that runs down through the beach. There are plenty of rock pools to explore as the tide recedes. There is a large sea wall that wraps around the beach offering a degree of protection, resulting in calm waters.

More Information
At high tide the beach can almost disappear, but there is plenty of space to admire the views across the cove as the sea laps against the sea walls.
Behind the beach is a small village with the remains of its chapel. The chapel was destroyed in the great storm of 1859, which lashed the Pembrokeshire coast and destroyed many buildings and eroded many cliffs.
Given the nature of the bay, this is a popular place with boating and watersports enthusiasts.
Easy Access
Accessibility is generally good. Access to the beach is via a steepish slipway, which could be used by wheelchairs, but caution would be advised. There is a small car park (fees apply) behind the beach. This car park is also a members car park so spaces are limited.
Facilities
There are no facilities here, but there are places to eat in near by Dinas which is within an easy drive or a wheelchair accessible walk to the pub at Pwllgwaelod.
Toilets
There are public toilets in the car park. They are open 24hr between April – October and over the Christmas holidays. They are closed between November and the start of the February half term – excepting the Christmas period.
Dog Restrictions
Dogs are allowed all year round.
