‘A visual overdose of beauty’: Barafundle Bay named in top 25 world’s best beaches by Passport Magazine A PEMBROKESHIRE beach
described as a ‘visual overdose of beauty’ has once again been named alongside internationally famous shorelines and taken a spot on a new top 25 best beaches list. Barafundle Bay, situated near
Stackpole Quay and managed by The National Trust, has been named alongside beaches from California to Cape Town as well as Melbourne, Rio de Janeiro, Auckland and many other spectacularly beautiful sites. It is also just one of two UK
beaches listed; the other being Robin Hood’s Bay in Yorkshire. Featured in Passport Magazine
in an article titled ’25 Best Beaches in the World’, Wales’ coastline is immediately highlighted for its ‘windswept grandeur’ and ‘rocky
coast’, and is compared to ‘idyllic white sands and sensuous turquoise waters of Bora Bora’. When it comes to Barafundle
Bay more specifically, it states: “Barafundle Bay, part of southwest Wales’ Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, is a revelation – all the more so for the process of arriving there. “As you approach by car, rolling
countryside turns more dramatic, sheer and craggy cliffs dropping precipitously to the sea.” The article goes on to describe
the idyllic surroundings as you journey through ‘bright emerald fields’, admiring ‘the deeply-striped cliffs’. It later states: “Ascending, the dirt track disappears and you’re in open
green fields, the pastures backed by rolling hills and the shimmering bay below, ringed by rocky cliffs. A few more minutes and you’re standing above Barafundle Bay. “A fairly steep flight of steps
brings you down to the sand. It’s been consistently voted one of Britain’s best by whomever votes on these things, and it’s easy to see why: it’s a luxuriant curve of sand, topped by dunes and grasses on hills that make it feel immensely private. “The long stretch of cliff known
as Stackpole Head sticks into the sea like an arm. A little boulder sits jauntily offshore. The waves crash against the smooth sand.” It ends: “Your company here?
12 people, four dogs, and a visual overdose of beauty.”
