Extremely stunning!!! We parked in the car park and turned right through the gate. The next gate on the left there are approx 100 stairs down to some large rocks and boulders which need to be walked over to access the water. The water was warm (Aug) and was such as delight to swim in. The views of the cliffs and caves were amazing. Would definitely recommend.

This is not Lydstep beach, this is further up and called Lydstep caverns beach. The best sands in Pembrokeshire! So beautiful and incredibly looking caverns and caves. Appropriate footwear essential for the steep walk down steps and along slippy rocks onto the glorious beach. Please check tide times before visiting. Real Gem of a place and loved every moment we spend here. We got very wet feet!
