Rhossili Bay

Arrived at Rhosilli Bay, Swansea, and was welcomed with such an amazing weather-- bright sunny with clear blue skies and not too many clouds. We parked next to a church with burial grounds (some dated way back to 1885) but thankfully, our vehicle was not spooked.

The bay, recommended by the landlord of The Rock Villa Bed & Breakfast, was indeed an amazing and spectacular. It has deep shore lines probably due to low tides and it looks as though the waters had retreated further out. It was almost half a kilometre walk to the water from the beach. It was not crowded and best of all, it is not comercialized as those of Scarborough's beach.

There are trails and tracks up along steep hills and mounts overlooking the bay. The view was breath-taking. It was very windy and I could not recall a moment without breeze.

Upon arrival, we planned to stay for only 45 minutes but because everything exceeded our expectations, we remained there for 3 hours. It was so beautiful. Posted by Picasa
