Porthgain is a treat to visit. Once a small commercial harbour used for exporting stone from the nearby quarry, it now offers visitors a great pub, a super cafe/restaurant and excellent art galleries. Great coastal views and interesting industrial ruins complete the package.

Its got a stunning harbour, amazing fish and chips from the shed (expensive but worth it), a pub AND a mini footy pitch on the green in the middle. Lovely.

Hiking

Great walk. We Started at Porthgain car park (N.B. Care should be taken when parking or risk a £70 fine) and climbed the steps at the side of the wharf to the left. Once at the top the going was fairly flat with fantastic views. After the Blue Lagoon, we cut the walk short by taking the footpath to the left by the toilets joining the road into Porthgain about half a mile away. We all had a great time.
