South Wales Coastal Path Walk from Nash Point to Barry

Feb 16, 2022
Walking the South Wales Coastal Path Trail Description: https://roamingspices.com/south-wales-coastal-path-walk/ Music: www.bensound.com Part 1 - Nash Point to Llantwit Major Beach From the Clifftop Cafe, head east along the small paved road, shortly reaching the first of the two iconic Nash Point lighthouses; the low (west) tower and the high (east tower). Once past the lighthouses and across a stone style you are on to the coastal path proper, where it is now just you, a grass trail underfoot and the dramatic jagged cliffs of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast just metres off to your right. After a couple of kilometres, the trail enters a small wooded area and almost immediately the path descends and breaks out on St Donat’s Bay, alongside the turreted stone wall that marks the southern boundary of the grounds of Atlantic College. The next point of interest is a little over a kilometre further along the coast as the path descends from the clifftop once more and into the picturesque, pebble adorned cove at Tresilian Bay. From Tresilian Bay, it is just a short one-kilometre hop along the open clifftops before once again meeting the shoreline at Llantwit Major Beach. Part 2 - Llantwit Major Beach to Aberthaw
