Aberavon beach,

Port Talbot SA12 6QW

"Aberavon beach is an amazing beach. Its golden sand as far as the eye can see. Also it has lovely coffee shops, café /restaurant along tthe prom. I absolutely love taking my golden retriever down there for a walk/play. It is also I safe haven for my mental health."

"The beach was beautiful but the promenade had dog mess all across it. Couldn't enjoy the view because you had to look down all the time. Something needs to be done."

"A gorgeous beach. Safe for children. Huge expense of sand. A promenade with cafes offering a good choice. Dogs are welcome all year round but from May to the end of September the beach is virtually cut in half and dogs only allowed on the right-hand side. However still a good expanse to walk. The promenade is excellent for disabled or wheelchair users, and all are welcome in Franco's, a popular cafe - good coffee, excellent fish and chips. Easy access and plenty of parking options."

"Great Beach, lots of space to set up your tents/chairs/mats etc, water is far from the sand though so it is a bit of a trek, ideal on a very hot day."

"Really nice beach. 5 stars for the UK, but obviously not comparable to what you’d find in Europe or beyond."
