Some photos from Oxwich Bay, south Wales - 'the most beautiful beach in Britain'

We camped at the site overlooking Three Cliffs last weekend. Lovely. Really, just very lovely.
Went surfing off Hill End in Llangenith, morning mooching around Swansea market, dinner at the Langland Brasserie (not bad food, great views), long walk and paddling with the little 'un at Oxwich (nice pics Ed), and a pub lunch at the King Arthur hotel in Bury Green (really good pub food).
I love the Gower. Don't go there half enough.

We've never actually camped on the Gower but we've been walking along the coastal path to/from Oxwich (also near Three Cliffs) more than once. In the right weather, the views are stunning! Lovely beaches :)
 
I spent many of my childhood summers at Oxwich, so I'm glad to see this thread. I haven't been back for a long time, and would love to do so, especially with that special someone, to show them around, walk up and down the beach, and so on. So much of the Gower is beautiful, but Oxwich will always have a special place in my heart.
 
Abervon sands was a cheap bus trip on a Sunday , in the days when South Wales Transport did socially inclusive trips for a few bob - especially when my father was working overtime.

However , Oxwich and Three Cliffs Bay was (and is) , a special excursion.
