Why it's Wildland

5.7

At the north-west tip of Gower, Broughton Bay opens into a wide coastal landscape of sand, dunes and big skies. Come for an unhurried shoreline visit, or use it as the starting point for a longer walk towards Llangennith.

The appeal here is the breadth of the landscape: an open bay, extensive dunes and far-reaching skies at Gower’s north-western edge. It offers a quieter-feeling coastal escape, with a reported walk linking the beach to Llangennith.
