Street View of Harlech Beach | Map of Harlech Beach location

Harlech beach and its surrounding dune area is one of the finest examples of a natural dune system in Britain and has been designated a NNR (National Nature Reserve), SSI (site of Special Scientific Interest) never mind being an FCPA (Fabulous Children's Play Area) ! Between the dunes and the town of Harlech are the championship links of the Royal St. David's Golf Club. What more could the fortunate golfers (or visitors) wish for ..... sun, sea, sand, historic Castle and fantastic scenery in which ever direction they choose to look.

Access to the beach is well signposted off the A496 and found below the Castle next to the railway crossing. (There is a Pay and Display Car Park a few hundred yards down the lane, and a very good Fish and Chip shop and Grocery store at the entrance to the lane.) It is then just a short walk to the beach along a path cutting through the golf course and the sand dunes.....
