Church Bay (Porth Swtan in Welsh) is a picturesque beach surrounded by steep cliffs. There are rock pools to explore and the beach affords very clean swimming water. The bay takes its name from nearby St Rhuddlad's Church, which you can see from the beach. Church Bay has been designated as a Blue Flag beach.

If you're staying in Church Bay, be sure to visit the Church Bay Inn, which features a great outdoor lookout onto the coast beyond.

Church Bay is so called because of the nearby St Rhuddlad's Church, Llanrhuddlad which is visible from the bay.
