Abermawr

Abermawr is a small bay and beach located on the north coast of Pembrokeshire, West Wales. It is known for its secluded location and natural beauty.

Geography: Abermawr is characterized by a shingle beach backed by low cliffs and wooded valleys. A small stream, the Afon Bach, flows into the bay. The bay faces northwest, making it exposed to prevailing winds and waves.

History: Abermawr has a history of human activity, including evidence of prehistoric settlement. More recently, the area was used for farming and quarrying.

Ecology: The surrounding area supports a diverse range of flora and fauna. The coastline is designated as part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and is important for seabirds and coastal habitats. The woodland areas provide habitat for various species of mammals and birds.

Access and Recreation: Abermawr is accessible via the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. It is a popular spot for walking, birdwatching, and enjoying the coastal scenery. There are limited facilities available at the bay.

Flooding: The bay is susceptible to flooding, particularly during periods of high tides and strong winds. This has led to the erosion of the shingle beach and changes in the coastal landscape.
