Rhossili Bay, Gower, Wales.Rhossili Beach on the Gower Peninsula - Britain's first 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' - is a dramatic three mile strip of uncrowded, super-soft sand that provides enough Atlantic surf to keep the lycra lads happy at the north end but is also OK for normal mortals at the south end when the waves are modest, tho watch out for any undertow.
The beach is frequently windy so sunbathers should bring a windbreaker. As for activities apart from surfing, the walking is glorious - whether on the beach or more easily on the trails above, horsey people are hot to trot here, winged folk love the stiff updrafts over the hills and drinkers love the views from the Worm's Head Hotel while they down draughts.
Get there from Swansea by bus on the Gower Explorer 118 or by car on the A4118 to the Gower Peninsula, then signs towards Port Eynon, finally the B4247 to Rhossili; you can park at either end of the beach, Llangennith for surfers or Rhossili for the rest.
