Wake up in Aberporth
Situated in the heart of Ceredigion, Aberporth offers a peaceful seaside village getaway, far removed from the hustle and bustle of modern life. This wildlife haven is flanked by two clifftops and celebrated for its sandy shores, welcoming beachfront, and an enchanting coastal path that winds its way from Aberporth to Tresaith. Aberporth is a place where the soothing sound of the waves sets the tempo, and if you listen carefully, you may hear residents chatting in the native Welsh language.
As you unwind by the sea, you might be fortunate enough to catch glimpses of bottlenose dolphins, Atlantic grey seals, and a variety of seabirds that consider this corner of Wales their playground. Don’t miss the opportunity to embark on wildlife boat trips to witness these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat.
