Things To See & Do
Llyfn Beach is nestled between high cliffs and is accessible only by a steep set of metal steps, adding to its secluded feel. Known for its striking natural beauty, the beach is part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
The beach features fine sand and clear water, ideal for dogs that love to run and splash. It’s perfect for a quiet day of relaxation and exploration. However, because of strong currents, undertow, and no lifeguards, be careful when swimming.
Access and Facilities
A few parking options exist at either Porthgain and walk, Abereiddy and walk or at Barry Island Farm (permission of farmer, charge for parking) down private road and dirt track.
Access to the beach is a descent via steep steps, and for some, this will not be possible with a dog.
Since the beach’s remote location means there are no facilities, bring all necessary supplies including fresh water for you and your dog, snacks, and dog waste bags.
