Rhossili Bay on the Gower Peninsula is regularly voted one of the best beaches in Britain. This walk takes in the spectacular three-mile sweep of golden sand and the dramatic tidal island of Worm's Head.

The beach is superb for dogs with miles of sand and Atlantic waves. The cliff-top walking offers exceptional views. Worm's Head is accessible for about two and a half hours either side of low tide.

This is one of the finest coastal walks anywhere in Britain, combining dramatic scenery with outstanding beach walking.
