Crabbing, surfing, bicycling, walking and bird-watching are favorite pastimes on the beaches of the Gower Peninsula, one of Great Britain’s designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Rhossili Bay’s white sand, saltwater and freshwater marshes, towering cliffs and sparkling blue water attract summer visitors in droves. Come at sunset to hear the gulls, blackcaps, warblers and goldcrests, and stay to watch the stars rise over the quiet beach.
