Pendine Sands
Picnic Location
There are several picnic spots at this five-mile beach- wander just a few metres to one of the benches on the seafront or spread a rug on the sands. Those with more energy should head west for rock-pooling or climb up to dramatic cliffs along the All Wales Coast Path. The views from up here across Carmarthen Bay are wonderful but if you want your picnic up here bring a rug as there are no benches! Pendine Sands is home to the setting of historic land speed records, ideal for flying kites and collecting shells and at certain times of the year you can even drive on the beach like those record breakers of old!
Picnic tip: find out when you can drive onto the beach and load up the car for the ultimate in beach dining.
How to reach: There is a car park on the seafront in Pendine.
Suggested walk: Pendine section of the all Wales Coastal Path
