The Welsh Coast

From castles in the sand to castles on a cliff-top, the Welsh coast is as beautiful and dramatic as it is diverse.

Photographer Peter Watson captures the visual delights of this twisting and endlessly varied coastline, starting at the northern tip, the birdwatcher’ s paradise along the Dee Estuary, then heading west to the Isle of Anglesey, passing along the way the resorts of Rhyl, Colwyn Bay and LLandudno. The Lleyn Peninsula then leads to the expansive stretch of coastline from Tremadog all the way down to Cardigan Bay, and then to the renowned Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and the impressive Gower Peninsula. The coastal odyssey ends on a high note with an exploration of some of the beaches and bays which can be found hidden away between the bustling cities of Swansea and Cardiff.
