Llansteffan Beach

Highlight • Beach

Llansteffan has been described as one of Wales’ best kept secrets. A sort of Never Never land known only to locals. Once you’ve experienced the magical beauty of a sunset over the castle above the River Tywi, you will wonder why more people haven't experienced this wonderful place for themselves.

Carmarthen Velodrome

Highlight • Structure

Lovely park in Carmarthen. You can park at Tesco and walk round here as long as you’re shopping of course 😬 it has lots of benches, a park, a nice velodrome which is good to sit and watch people. Nice little hidden place in the town

Carmarthen Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

Carmarthen is a small town that is thought to be the oldest in Wales. One of the most notable features of the town is the Roman fort, which dates to around 75 AD. The town’s medieval castle is also interesting. History aside, you find plenty of places to eat and drink, shops, and accommodation, making it a great place for a pit-stop or an overnight stay.

Ferryside Beach and Fisherman Sculpture

Ferryside is a really pretty little village in Carmarthenshire on the estuary of the River Tywi. There used to be a ferry crossing here, hence the name, but latterly became a fishing village and these days the main industry is tourism.
