Oxwich Bay on the Gower peninsular is a truly beautiful beach, with soft white sand stretching for the full length of this long and curving Bay.
Recently voted Britains Best Beach by travel writers who had visited and researched over a thousand beaches worldwide. Oxwich Bay was praised for "magnificent and unspoilt" scenery and as a "great place for adults and children to explore". The award was placed by looking at natural beauty, good sand and sea quality and a 'just-this-minute-discovered' feel. A quote from one of the judges advised - Oxwich was the "hands-down" winner for the UK.
The beach is popular with paddlers, bathers and many high-speed boats and jet skis as the car park is directly on the beachfront. Overlooked by Penrice Castle, and surrounded by extensive dunelands and wooded areas, which are great for children and adults alike to explore.
A real must on your tick list whilst visiting the Beautiful Gower Peninsular.

2009 marks the 250th anniversary of Scottish poet Robert Burns' birth. Burns was a poet and a lyricist and is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland.
The Burns Supper was started a few years after his death by a group of his friends; they held the supper to honour and remember Burns. The tradition caught on and the ritual of Burns Supper is now held all around the world.
His life and work will be celebrated throughout the year at many Burns-related events.
