About
Patch Beach sits near the scenic village of Gwbert on the Ceredigion coast. It is on the North shore of the Teifi Estuary and is a river rather than a sea beach.
Although Patch Beach is dog-friendly all year round, we recommend alternatives like Poppit Sands Beach on the west Pembrokeshire side of the estuary, which is better for a traditional beach visit.
