This is also known as Cym Ivy. Drive through LLanmadoc. At the church follow the road round to the right. Park at the car park on the right as you drive down to Cym Ivy. There is an honesty box and no parking attendant.
This is a stunning walk with huge sandy beaches. You can walk through the pine trees and head down to the beach. There are ponies and sheep that graze here. It is quite a long walk along a bumpy track and sandy paths. Please be careful if you are swimming here as it is quite tidal. Broughton at high tide would be a safer beach to swim.
There is a café called Cym Ivy Café and Crafts that sell coffee, cake and lunches. They are open Wednesday-Sunday.
