Thousands of beach-goers showed their love for the coast recently by
attending our Big Beach Picnics. Local
teams at four of our most popular coastal places hosted these special events on
the 4th of July to celebrate the 50th anniversary of our Coastline Campaign.
At Rhossili, Gower, beachgoers basked in the sun on the headland
overlooking one of Britain’s most spectacular beaches as they were entertained
by the world-renowned Morriston Orpheus Choir, the Penclawdd Brass Band and
other musical performances. Happy
picnickers at Barafundle, Marloes and Llanbedrog beaches were also treated to
storytelling, surfing lessons, beach games, fancy dress photography and face
painting.
There was no danger of anyone leaving any litter behind. We teamed up with our friends at Keep Wales
Tidy and organised popular two-minute beach cleans. Event organiser Lowri Roberts said, “Everyone
had a great time – and the beach was left cleaner than it was before.”
