A perfect dog walking & playing beach. Only the left hand side bans dogs and the dog permissible area is the biggest. Really good RNLI shop, loos and cafe.

Lovely beach with lots of sand and the added sniffy dog bonus of dunes. Sadly there is also a lot of dog poo left behind in these out of sight areas, so watch where you walk.
Lots of dogs on the beach running free, some have no recall, so if your dog is in training or on a long line as a puppy this can be a bit of a trial, Even in Winter this appears to be the place to go with your dog.
Parking area can get busy very quickly, and you need to pay. Cafe on edge of beach also gets busy too.

This is probably the best beach for those dog owners who have been disappointed with Ceredigion beaches (with their very limited availability to dogs in summer).
