Tor Bay

Sandwiched between the sands of Oxwich and Three Cliffs, Tor Bay is best reached via a one mile footpath from the village of Penmaen. From the large limekiln on the cliff top overlooking the bay, a track then leads down a rather steep slope onto the beach itself.

The most notable feature of Tor Bay is Great Tor, an immense rock face of limestone dividing the beach from Three Cliffs Bay at high tide. This crag is extrememly popular amongst rock climbers, who can often be seen scrambling up the vertical rock walls, securing themselves with ropes as the slowly progress to the summit.
