Parks & Nature

The beach faces south-west, which means that it is not sheltered from the Atlantic winds and the waves here can be quite large, making it a good beach for surfing, as well as wind/kite surfing. When the waves are not too big, fishing, bathing and canoeing are popular pastimes here. There is zoning for water sports and the beach is cleaned daily during the summer months. Rest Bay is home to a fair few rock pools beach in which a variety of marine life can be found. www.thebeachguide.co.uk/south-wales/glamorgan/rest-bay-porthcawl.htm

Arts & Culture

The Boathouse is a house in Laugharne, Wales, in which the poet Dylan Thomas lived with his family between 1949 and 1953, the last four years of his life. It was at this house that he wrote many major pieces. It has often been suggested that he wrote Under Milk Wood here but more recent research suggests that fewer than 300 lines of the play were written in Laugharne.[1][2] The house is set in a cliff overlooking the Tâf Estuary. Just over an hours drive.
