These are my favorite months on the beach, dogs and people are allowed to run free, chase balls and frisbies, chatter. The second cafe, does fish and chips, quality ice-cream, drinks, and the roadside one is much more of a traditional beach shop, where buckets and spades sit next to ice-creams, burgers and rock. Dogs are allowed inside the cafe, and I have spent many happy hours sat looking out at the weather, chatting with friends. Closest to the beach is Surfside Cafe, which does great coffee, hot chocolate, breakfast, and sandwiches. There are three cafes on the small beach front.

You often find people still on the beach having an evening barbecues, as the tide roll in. Summer ……During the summer May 1st to Sept 30th the beach is for families and the council do not allow dogs on the Caswell Bay beach, family’s can spread out, build sand castles and paddle, swim, picnic. There are a couple of surf schools that base themselves at the beach if you want to learn. Perfect with the life-guards for paddling and swimming, or trying body boarding or surfing. High summer it offers a child friendly expanse of sand, pools, rock pools and shallow waters. Caswell Bay, Gower, is three minutes stroll away.
