The beach is known for its turquoise waters to staggering sunsets
Coachloads of day-trippers are turning up at Pen Llŷn beach and campsite only to find there is no space. Porth Iago, on the north-west side of the Llŷn Peninsula, Gwynedd, first became popular in the 1970s.
The beach, which is known for its turquoise waters to staggering sunsets, isn't just for caravans, campervans and tents. Day visitors can pay a £5 parking charge to explore the headlands or clamber down to the sandy beach for a dip. “Last summer a coach party from Birmingham called to ask if they could come and we said that, unfortunately, they couldn’t. They came anyway, so we had to turn them back. They drove all the way back to Bimingham.”
