The beach is beautiful & clean & at certain times of the day you will be the only one on it, the steps on the way back could be a little tiring for some but overall it's great!

Wow, such a long, wide and wild-if-windy beach. Perfect for a gentle stroll, or blowing off the cobwebs, depending on the weather. You get a real sense of isolation here, with not that many fellow walkers, (midweek/October). It's well signposted on the local road, with a small car park. Then around 5mins walk along a sandy path through the dunes... And then - the view! We enjoyed reading the various signs, learning a little of the beach's history and wildlife. (The more signs and info the better methinks. History and wildlife very important, as well as giving areas like these context.) We loved it here, spending a very happy hour, walking part of this huge beach. Oh that we had more time to cover it all...no matter, we'll return someday.

What a beautiful place of earth this is! remote and clean and yet close to all amenities of the hustling and bustling little town of Pwllheli! Here you find both - blue flag beaches, excellent sailing waters, peace and quiet, family fun AND all this only a stroll away from shops and hospitality. What a fabulous experience!

We travelled to Porth Oer to see the Whistling Sands Beach which we learnt about from watching a TV programme. Althought the short walk from the National Trust Car Park is quite steep it is well worth to see the Whislting Beach with its rugged Coastline. Unfortunately we were unable to witness the "whistling effect" as ther was a very strong wind which drowned out most noises. There are also Coastal Paths which can be taken along the Coast, however we did not do so on this occasion. Well worth a Visit if in the Area!

Great for leisurely dangling a crab/prawn net or just watching the boats bobbing up and down or just the sea lapping against the beach. Good parking....toilets too!
7. Aberdaron Beach

Reviewed By Munromonsters - Bradford, United Kingdom
We stayed in Aberdaron and found the beach and the whole bay a little gem. Mainly sandy with shingle at the far ends near the cliffs. The only thing to watch is the eastern end of the beach gets cut off at really high tide however you only have to wait an hour before you can get back along the sea wall.

This is the other end of the Abersoch beach with access down a winding country lane, boat launching facilities are available and there is a toilet block in the small car park. Mickeys boatyard cafe is a great place to grab some good food at reasonable prices as well. Our favourite end of the beach!

Flat beach with beautiful views. We visited when it was raining but it was still beautiful. Looks like the tide comes in high though. Easy access from town.
