Porthcawl
Located between Swansea and Cardiff, Porthcawl
was originally a port for the iron and steel industries
and still has some interesting features from that period,
including the oldest maritime warehouse in Wales, an
attractive harbour and the last coal and gas powered
lighthouse in the country. It developed as a seaside
resort after the Great War and the splendid Grand Pavilion dates from
1932. Nearby is Kenfig Nature Reserve, a site of national importance. This
attractive seaside resort offers numerous facilities, including the world
famous Porthcawl golf course, the finest course in Wales and one of
several in the area, an expansive sandy beach and Coney Beach, a
fairground with a variety of rides and amusements which was named
after the famous New York venue. To the east of the town is the River
Ogmore and the beautiful Glamorgan Heritage Coast.
