Black Rock Sands is a beautiful, wide beach located near the village of Morfa Bychan in Eryri, Wales. Despite its name, the beach is not black but is named after the multi-coloured headland rock to the west. The beach stretches for about 2 miles and is backed by sand dunes, which are designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

​

Here are some key features of Black Rock Sands:

Driving on the Beach: One unique aspect is that you can drive your car directly onto the beach, making it convenient for picnics and water sports.

​

Natural Beauty: The beach offers stunning views of the Snowdonia mountains and countryside. It also has low-tide caves and rock pools rich in marine life.

​

Activities: There are designated zones for motorboats and water bikes. However, visitors should be cautious of strong currents, tidal entrapment, and the fast-flowing tide.
