Rhossili Beach in December

The beach at Rhossili reflects the changing tides, seasons, and weather. The light or lack of it influences the whole atmosphere of the place. The degree of sunshine and warmth affects the number of visitors. The prevalence of white surf shows how stormy it has been. Always changing, endlessly intriguing, sometimes challenging – especially in winter. Nothing deters some walkers from venturing across the 5 kilometres of sand, whatever the weather. It can be cold, blowy and very wet in winter. However, it is always a treat to settle down (as I and my lap-top have done many times) with a hot coffee and delicious cake, and admire the fantastic view of Rhossili Bay from the comfort of the Bay Bistro in the village on the top of the cliff!
