Discover Pendine & West Wales

Pendine’s seven-mile stretch of firm golden sand is the reason many people first come here — and the reason they come back. It’s a place for unhurried days by the sea: long walks, kite flying, rock pools at the eastern end and wide views across Carmarthen Bay. The village sits right behind the dunes, five minutes’ walk from the caravan, with the Museum of Land Speed telling the story of the record-breaking cars once raced across these sands.

Beyond Pendine itself, this stretch of the Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire coast has a beach for every kind of day — and the Wales Coast Path linking many of them.
