Overview

From Cwm Ivy, we will follow the coast path round to Whiteford Point, passing through woodland and along the edge of the marsh (sometimes muddy!). 

There should be good views across the estuary. We will then follow the path round and along the beach before returning to our starting point. 

A nice flat walk, with just a little ascent to the car park at the end.
