More Information
Although a thin strip of sand at high tide, it is at low tide that the majesty of this beach is revealed. A beautiful bay of lush sand and gloriously clear waters, tempt all kind of activities. It is a popular destination for families and swimming and bathing is much enjoyed here.
There is plenty of attractive headland to explore, with a plethora of craggy outcrops and cliffs to walk on, over and around.
Car Parking
There is a car park directly behind the beach. The paid car park (£5) can hold about 60 cars, but can also get very busy during the summer. There is a shuttle bus (summer only) from The Oriel y Parc car park in St Davids that can take you to Whitesands.

Access to the beach is through the car park or via the coast path. There is a slipway from the car park down onto the beach so it is accessible for those in wheelchairs or with buggies.
