Season: summer

Located on the north coast of the Llyn peninsula, Porth Oer beach is popular with surfers and body boarders, due to the deep swells that arrive here.  Nearby Mynydd Carreg makes a fine lookout point for nature lovers.  The views from the beach are outstanding and there are footpaths through the dunes to explore, enjoying the wildlife as you go.  The beach is also known as Whistling Sands due to the sound made by the beach when you walk along it.  With a seasonal cafe and a picnic site, plus nearby National Trust parking, this is a great place to explore.
