The UK's cleanest beach is often likened to the Caribbean and a must visit in the summer

Updated: Aug 2

Backed by pine trees and dunes, and is only accessible with a half-mile walk from the nearest car park is this picturesque beach in Wales.


The beach has been described as "one of Wales' most beautiful beaches" and has also been described as "the jewel in the crown" of the local coastlibe.


This hidden gem beach is owned and managed by the National Trust, and you'll be suprised most people who visit have no idea about this location.

The beach is accessible via the coastal path, and is a favourite for those who want to enjoy a walk with stunning views along the way.


Tourism board Visit Pembrokeshire said: "Swathes of golden sand and crystal clear waters, Barafundle has been voted many, many times as one of the best beaches in Britain and the world; it’s often likened to a Caribbean beach. This pristine beach is isolated which means no facilities; so everything you take has to come back up over the cliffs."



As well as that, thanks to visitors listening to the above advice, Barafundle Bay has scooped up the title of the UK's "cleanest beach" according to Litterbins.co.uk.


The analysis explained: "Topping the list as the cleanest beach in the UK is Barafundle Bay, Pembrokeshire, Wales".
