Laugharne Beach
Carmarthenshire
Laugharne Beach is a sandy and pebble beach near the village of Laugharne, immortalised by Dylan Thomas who lived and worked here. Thomas's Boathouse and writing shed are open to visitors, and the Brown's Hotel where he regularly drank is a local institution. The estuary beach looks across to the saltmarshes and the Taf Estuary provides outstanding birdwatching.
No restrictions confirmed. Year-round dog access. Dylan Thomas connections make Laugharne a literary pilgrimage alongside the beach visit.
