Port Eynon Beach

This charming fishing village beach on the Gower Peninsula offers a perfect blend of maritime heritage and natural beauty, with its sheltered bay providing safe swimming and excellent snorkeling opportunities. The sandy beach is framed by the ruins of a medieval salt house and lime kilns, testament to the area's industrial past, while the village itself retains much of its traditional Welsh fishing community character. Popular with families and watersports enthusiasts, the beach offers good facilities including cafes, shops, and accommodation, plus easy access to the spectacular Gower coastal path. The calm waters and gradual shelving make it ideal for children, while the nearby rocky areas provide excellent rock pooling and diving opportunities.
