Porthcawl to Swansea via Margam, Port Talbot, Aberaron, Shelone, Port Tennant
Dunes, scrub, steel works, Margam back streets, city, sandy beach to end.
Wales Coast Path
Great variety but I would be hard pushed to call it a pretty day. The trail also takes a peculiar but enjoyable route through the back streets of Margam. Aberaron Sands are a great surprise as was a newly developed sea front at Swansea.
My Rank: **
