Llangennith: La Capital del Surf en Gales

Again we go to the Wales zone to learn about a new tourist destination. This is the people of Llangennith , located in the Swansea Count Strong>. This place is between the slopes of the three hills and is a place besieged by the surfers, who come to conquer the waves of the Atlantic Ocean that bathes its beaches!

This place, as we have already said, is the capital of southern gower , but not only do boys with tables in search of adrenaline come here, but also many families who want to spend a pleasant sunny day.

In Llangennith we will find a three -mile bay. If you have never experienced surf sport, it could be a good opportunity to learn, don’t you think? You will have no problem because here several schools offer surf classes during the summer. It will also be impressed with the beautiful beaches that are full of magnificent sand dunes especially on the island of Burry Holms . Of course, if you go to this island, be careful if it is inexperienced because they do not usually patrol the lifeguards in this place. It is not a joke! To believe ourselves we will tell you that in Llangennith a series of boats have shipwrecked when the tide becomes dangerous! But do not scare, it does not always happen … on the contrary, normally the conditions are excellent and the sea and the sky take a deep blue color that will evoke some landscape painting.

Let’s move on to another topic. In Llangennith we can also take a historical and cultural walk. In that way? Well here a church of the 12th century, the greatest gower . It is a place dedicated to San Cennydd , which was founded as a convent in the 6th century, but destroyed by the Vikings in the year 986. That is why we can also see a few steps a few steps of the medieval people of Coeth Green . How interesting!

Surely he has not realized but we have talked about San Cennydd, something similar to llangennith sounds? Yes, this priororate was the one that gave the name to the village!

Now there is no excuse not to take a walk in the area: culture, history, beach and surf. What more could you want?
