Relax on the sandy beach...
Barmouth is one of southern Snowdonia's most popular seaside resorts, with a stunning beach that offers breathtaking views across Cardigan Bay. You can try your hand at a range of watersports - the reliable waves of Barmouth Bay are particularly good for surfing and the sheltered waters are ideal for family swimming and kayaking.
