Barafundle Bay, Wales
A breezy stroll down the Pembrokeshire Coast Path across gorse-covered clifftops builds anticipation for Barafundle Bay: an arc of butterscotch sand surrounded by dunes and easing its way softly into brilliant blue sea. This bay frequently leads surveys of the best beaches in the UK, and if you avoid busy weekends in summer, you'll experience the charm.
"Wow!" is most likely the greatest word to describe this beach. A little bay surrounded by dunes and pine trees, about a half mile walk from the nearest car park. Barafundle has been chosen numerous times as one of the greatest beaches in Britain and the world, with swaths of golden sand and crystal blue seas; it's sometimes compared to a Caribbean beach! Because this magnificent beach is remote, there are no amenities, so anything you take must be returned up over the rocks. If you’re planning to visit, check out the tide times to make sure you’ve plenty of beach to play on and that you don’t get cut off by the incoming tide!
