What visitors say
Port Eynon beach was the 3rd beach we had visited during our stay along the Gower, the other two being Rhossili bay and Oxwich bay. Although all had facilities I.e. toilets, cafe and surf shops, Port Eynon was by far the most suitable for us. The parking, shops and beach were all just a short walk away, it caters well for people with mobility issues or use a disabled badge. Prices for food, drinks etc were comparable with elsewhere, parking for blue badge holders was free. Those looking for surf or scenery and walks, are better heading to Rhossilli, parking was £5,00 Those looking for a family friendly beach with parking next to the beach should head to Oxwich, parking was £7.00

Lovely beach, located in a very peaceful area of South Wales. There’s some lovely local caravan parks, properties to rent and two nice pubs all in walking distance of each-other in Port Eynon. There’s a lack of mobile signal throughout the whole area, so you are only likely to get signal via WiFi. This is actually an advantage as phones are over utilised these days and it’s very important to disconnect and live in the moment! Hint: If there’s clear sky at night take a walk down the beach. For stargazing the view is incredible, you can just about see the Milly Way ✨

All skunk and dog shit. Never seen so many dogs on any beach , especially a 'dog free' beach. My daughter wrote a poem in the sand and spaniel came and shat on it. It wasn't exactly the firmest of dog eggs either. There is a pleasant background aroma of cheap skunk and pumping bass too if that's your bag.
