Guide - Langland Bay, Caswell Bay

Apr 13

Caswell Bay beach is a sought-after spot with surfers and families alike, Langland Bay is only a 25 minute walk from Caswell Bay so it’s worth seeing both places, whichever one you choose to see first. Both beaches have spectacular views and the hike between the two passes the wonderful Langland Bay Golf Club. The surf ability centre in Caswell Bay was built by a team of local volunteers alongside a special episode of the television programme DIY SOS for BBC Children in Need.

Stay safe, this is one of our most beautiful beaches, but nature can be wild too - watch out for strong tides and currents at all times.

This guide will give you all the details you need to reach Langland Bay via Public transport from Cwtsh Hostel. We also recommend a circular hike to complete while you are there.
