There are free public toilets at this site. The graffiti in the cubicles in the gents is both graphic and obscene. Something to consider if you have children of reading age. The facilities are otherwise spotlessly clean.

Rhyl Beach, at the seaside resort of Rhyl on the north-east coast of Wales, has sand stretching about six miles along the coast to Prestatyn. Nice coastal path for riding on.

The unspoilt beach is a walker’s paradise. Part of the Welsh Coastal Path, Pensarn’s promenade provides beautiful views out to the Irish Sea.
