British Beaches
We do love to be beside the seaside… What do you think of when you think of British beaches?...
Our Seaside Spotlight this month is looking at North Wales’s Conwy Morfa Beach which has its ownunique charm that you won’t want to miss.
So, let’s get started and discover what makes Conwy Morfa Beach a standout in North Wales.
The beach is part of the collection of sandy beaches in North Wales that form Conwy Bay.
At low tide, the sandy bay links up with the locally famous Conwy Bay mussel banks, ideal for sandcastles and laid-back beach fun.
It is popular with all kinds of visitors – not just families looking for a relaxing beach day out – such as those looking to do a spot of fishing and bird-watching.
There’s tons of open space, and you’ll no doubt welcome the opportunity to stretch your legs along with your furry friend!
Despite its small size, the small surrounding town of Conwy is packed with history!
You can explore lots of medieval buildings, and the town’s Castles and Town Walls of King Edward in Gwynedd are UNESCO World Heritage Sites and are considered one of Europe’s best-preserved fortresses.
There are lots of activities to get involved in while you enjoy your day at Conwy Morfa Beach, including:
The restrictions on dogs, or should we say lack of them, make Conwy Morfa Beach a standout option when looking for a dog-friendly beach in North Wales. Dogs are welcome to roam around and explore the beach all year round but remember to keep your pooch on a leash when at the beach.
Yes! You can swim at Conwy Morfa Beach; the pristine waters are well-looked after, ready for a splash around with the family! It’s worth noting that there is no lifeguard service here like at some of the other family-friendly UK beaches.
Unfortunately, there are no specific on-beach facilities to make visiting this beach easier for low-mobility, elderly or disabled users.
There’s a public-use toilet near the beach car park, this toilet isn’t modified to accommodate low mobility or disabled users.
After a day at the beach, you’ll need to refuel – let’s take a look at some of the local options available.
High-quality & close to the beach, what more could you ask for? Signature’s Restaurant is just off the Morfa Beach car park and offers a range of cuisines as well as free WiFi, highchairs for kids, and wheelchair access to make your visit easier.
The Old White House is the ideal restaurant near Conwy Morfa Beach to take everyone for Sunday lunch. Free Wi-Fi, dog-friendly with outdoor seating and highchairs available & a full bar with beers & wines for the adults, it’s certainly worth the 20-minute walk!
Ideal if you’re looking to refuel after a full day at the beach, The Mulberry also doubles as a quality bar. It offers award-winning wines and ales along with classic British favourites to complete your day at the seaside.
A trip to Parisella’s Ice Cream Parlour is certainly worth a hop in the car for the 6-minute drive to the popular dessert seller. Treat your sweet tooth with crepes and waffles, try experimental gelatos or stick to traditional ice-creams to cool down after your day at the beach.
Escape to The Beach Caravan Park for stunning coastal views and top-notch amenities, perfect for your seaside getaway. Steps away from Conwy Morfa Beac, it’s an ideal base to explore North Wales!
Experience/discover tranquillity with a stay at Bryn Morfa Holiday Park. It’s conveniently located in a small town, and you can enjoy the peaceful surroundings and easy access to local attractions.
