There are many circular routes linking with parts of the Wales Coast Path so you can enjoy particular sections of the coast without having to walk the same stretch twice. Not only is the path accessible to walkers; there are some sections which are designed to allow bikes, pushchairs, wheelchairs and horses. In addition, some counties offer coastal shuttle buses to make it easier to walk sections of the path in sequence without having to retrace your steps. If buses are not available, you can often leave your car at your destination and arrange for a local cab driver to take you to your starting point for the day.

See the Wales Coast Path website for details of available guidebooks to various sections of the path.

Look Out For Wildlife

There is a superb variety of wildflowers along the coast which contributes to the interest of the walks. May is a glorious time when pink sea thrift, white sea campion and yellow gorse make a blaze of colour along the higher sections. Butterflies, dragonflies and other insect life abound, and seabirds which nest along the cliffs include Razorbill, Guillemot, Kittiwake and Chough.

Gaze out to sea for a chance to spot porpoises and dolphins; seals can also be seen bobbing about near the shore or lounging on isolated beaches around the cliffs. They also breed on the beaches in late summer/early autumn.
