Description
The stretch of coastal path between Abereiddi and Porthgain has a few interesting landmarks, there having been a slate mine here until 1910. The carpark at southern end is popular with sea-kayak rental firms and adventure tourism that take schoolchildren from the nearby hostel to swim in the so called Blue Lagoon. At the northern end, a picturesque old harbour is a wonderful place to enjoy fish and chips.
Along the path here expect to see Traquet motteux, Fauvette grisette, Tarier pâtre, Linotte mélodieuse and Alouette des champs in breeding season. Faucon crécerelle, Grand Corbeau, are likely year round. Crave à bec rouge is possible.
Gulls including Goéland marin and Fulmar boréal are likely flying past and Fou de Bassan or Grand Cormoran may be seen out to sea.

Accès
The walk can be done as a there-and-back starting from either end but parking in the large National Trust managed pay-and-display at Abereiddi beach is likely to be the easiest option. There are toilets here open in the summer (but no disabled or baby-change facilities).
There is a bus route called the Strumble Shuttle that goes between Abereiddi and Porthgain so could be used to help plan a point-to-point, or to access one of the ends from other nearby towns. The walk is about 3,5 km one way.
