Preferably not Rhyl or Abersoch but somewhere nice and quiet with a nice beach for the kids to play on! I've seen some nice ones on tely on the Pembroke coast but can't remember the names. Ideally I'd like some experienced recommendations.

Thanks

Steve

Why? you going to a beach in Wales too?

v8voodoo

Tenby?
St. Davids?

Aberdovey has good beach, mountains, steam trains, sailing, crabbing, nice fish & chips, etc. Also Tywyn, much quieter, and Barmouth.

Llandudno is nice but its pebble,

anglesey is the nicest , imho, treardhur bay, or that one next to some woods

Turbo2

My brother lives there and recommends the following beaches: Mwnt, White Sands - St Davids, Newgale, Aberporth, Newport, Tenby, Amroth, Wiseman's bridge. Find yourself somewhere nice to stay as a base and drive around.

On Anglesey: Llanddwyn or Porth Trecastell

Anywhere on the Lleyn Peninsula is good, with easy access to Anglesey's beaches too.

Whistling sands is beautiful, and quiet.

Further down, around St. Davids is very nice and as previously mentioned Tenby and the surrounding area is beautiful with some great beaches. And to make it even better, it's Little England down there, it's like beng in Devon, and I say that being Welsh!

I'll second that one. One of my favourite areas. Also, don't forget the honey ice cream shop just outside Tywyn

yes the beech on aberdovey/ynslas/borth is nice good for the kids, nice and quite, my mother has a caravan down there so its like home form home.

Had a few weeks on the Gower Peninsula when we were kids. Weather must have been good as the holiday has really stuck in my memory. Went swimming loads and also got on of the cheapo polystyrene surf boards to muck around on. Caught lots of waves

Quite popular these days though especially with the surf crowd but there are enough beaches that you should be able to find some quieter spots. Rhossili bay is big enough for everyone anyway:

New Quay right on the west wales coast. I have family there and regularly enjoy going down there and staying in these well nice farm cottages a few miles away. Great way to rrelax and enjoy the country side

***pslewis***

New Quay is brilliant and cheap.

The Gower is fantastic too!

Snowdonia is amazing.

Wales is a cracking place - just stay away from the Council Estates ..... row upon row of grey pebble dashed houses and MOT failures - real poverty is there

What about Fairbourne right by Barmouth? very quiet nice Beech and only a train stop away from Barmouth.

DYK

No one's said Pendine Sands.and if you walk over the otherside of the cliff,there is a very nice little beach..Aberdovey is pritty cool too.try walking it along the beach into towyn..or you can walk from Fairbourne into Barmouth,along the Bridge that crosses the Estuary..

True, only thing is I'm too knackered when i get across and can't be a#sed to walk round Barmouth you could always catch that ferry across it's only about £3. (lazy option)

DYK

**** me i loved walking across that Bridge of a night time from Barmouth when i were a young lad..(still am young btw)we would walk it across the Birdge at like 11 pm,**** me it was totally dark.and then from the car park,we would follow the railway track into Fairbourne..WE used to look back across the Bridge over into Barmouth,and see the town lights in the distance.and in the Summer you used to get that warm sea air blowing inland..Great day's...

Dude I sit in a chair all day now no good for walking but yes I also remember when I was young and used to walk across that bridge it was so tranquil, p.s I used to stay in the station house at Fairbourne (the house right on the platform) Very true Great days, Did you ever go to Blue lake up the Valley from Fairbourne?

DYK

Yea we used to go allover the place..we used to call it the blue Mountains for some reason..where the Barmouth bridge was that little gravel carpark,well next to that used to be a track like a dissused railway or something.And you could walk it all the way along that track to the George pub.that pub next to the toll bridge..plus we used to walk it along the top of them mountains,overlooking Barmouth..my Dad used to go sea fishing at Barmouth..Havent been there for some Year's,but always remember it..

daddyscoob

if you are anywhere near it try to visit the place the prisoner was made - Portmeirion. If you're old like me and remember the series it's just like it lots of weird and strange buildings. Nice walks and a nice beach.
