Three Cliffs Bay, Gower - The Beautiful Beaches Of Wales

Three Cliffs Bay sits on the southern coast of the Gower Peninsula near Swansea, South Wales.
The Gower was the first area in the UK to be designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and when you visit, you’ll understand why.
The bay takes its name from the 3 limestone cliffs which jut out into the bay.
There is no road access to Three Cliffs Bay but there are a number of options in the area where you can park and walk.
On this trip, I parked in the National Trust carpark in the village of Southgate and walked along the Wales coastal path to the bay itself.
If you walk upriver (Pennard Pill) from the bay you get to Pennard Castle. Like most castles in the area, it was built by the Normans in the 12th century. The castles and the small settlement which surrounded was finally abandoned in the 1500s due to the encroachment of the surrounding sand dunes.
Although, the beach is beautiful because of the cliffs and the river swimming isn’t recommended due to the strong currents. If you do want to swim then nearby Oxwich Bay is a good option.

Wow I might go here later this week

[@arienadventures236]

Amazing views that you captured wonderfully!

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks, it is a beautiful area.

[@Svenywhere]

Someone from London here who is so jealous about this. We just don't have any nature within reach and you have so many beautiful places at your doorstep.

[@flydriveexplore]

I know, I used to live in London but now appreciate the space. This filmed was on a dry Sunday afternoon and it was still quiet.

I used to live in city too . After a few years I realised I want to be close to nature. I live 2 h away from Gower , there is much more than just wild sea coast . We’ve been visiting Gower and Pembrokeshire for a few years , never looked back to cities. This sea coast is the most beautiful 😍

[@flydriveexplore]

Great to visit when the tide's out

[@danielhinds7248]

I live here

[@Risankaan]

Woooow!! Must visit this place. So u can't park next to the bay??

[@flydriveexplore]

Definitely worth a visit, no parking at the bay itself you have to walk a short distance to get there

[@5ynthesizerpatel]

When I lived in Swansea it always amazed me how such a breathtakingly beautiful place could exist such a short drive away from a pretty sh*tty city like Swansea ( don't get me wrong - the people in Swansea are awesome - the city itself - not so much )

[@rickydaniels2686]

so beautiful 💋

[@xxOzzie63xx]

I agree its a beautiful bay & beach, well worth the visit. Unfortunately due to its location, its not that good for a day trip there due to there being no facilities (toilets etc), unlike Oxwich or Rhossilli just around the corner. But to see Three Cliffs Bay is most definitely worth the visit.
