Aber-west
Aber-west

The small cove of Aber-west lies just below the headland of Dinas Fawr on the north side of St Brides Bay. It has a shore of low-tide sand backed by a very steep bank of rocks and thorny scrub and is NOT easily accessible. I have included it here because these websites : thebeachguide.co.uk / stayinwales.co.uk / dogfuriendly.com / dayoutforkids.co.uk / bestukbeaches.co.uk / bluestonewales.com / sandee.com have all copied mis-information from each other and wrongly claim this beach is accessible. Some even say it has a "gently sloping grassy hill to the rear"!

Immediately west of Aber-west and connected to it by a short low-tide sea cave is the similar cove of Porth y Bwch. Even with a rope, reaching either of these beaches would be difficult. The only way is by paddleboard or kayak from nearby Solva.
