Nefyn Beach is a long, sweeping, sheltered sandy bay located behind the Nefyn headland on the north coast of the Llŷn Peninsula. The beach is nestled in a small village, also called Nefyn, which is situated on the isolated north coast of the Llyn Peninsula. The beach itself is a hidden gem, characterised by clear blue waters, stunning views of the bay, and the distant three peaks of The Rival Mountains (Yr Eifl) to the east. The beach is predominantly sandy, with some pebbles, and features a number of picturesque, whitewashed cottages which are concentrated towards the western end of the bay.
Nefyn Beach offers a range of features and activities for visitors. At low tide, towards the headland, there are some good rock pools to be found. The beach also features a number of beach huts and can be an excellent destination for bathing and sunbathing in fine weather. Access to the beach from the village is down Lon Y Traeth, a steep track, at the end of which is a car park with public toilets. The Llyn Coastal Path heads west from the car park.
Nefyn Beach is situated next to Porth Dinllaen Beach on the north coast of the Llŷn Peninsula. Both beaches offer a unique and picturesque experience for visitors, with their sheltered sandy bays and stunning coastal scenery.
