About this beach
This is a small secluded pretty cove to the north of Llangrannog and is frequently photographed. It lies next to the designated bathing water at Llangrannog. Measuring approximately 100 metres in width, with interbedded mudstone and sandstone cliffs on either side, the sandy, sheltered beach has a distinctive large rock on the shore’s edge. The bathing water can either be accessed at low tide from Llangrannog or via the coastal path. The coastal waters and coastal belt are designated as the Cardigan Bay Special Area of Conservation and the Aberarth Cerreg Wylan Site of Special Scientific Interest, confirming the high conservation status of the area. Natural Resources Wales's designated sample point is located to the centre of the beach.
