Cardigan - T5

Cardigan Guildhall Market is perfect for finding local traders and a souvenir to take home with you, from handmade belts to freshly baked sweet treats. For a real taste of Cardigan, head to the award-winning Crwst - browse their delicious selection of caramel spreads, honey butters, and coffee blends.

Aberporth - T5

For the ultimate beach day, the next stop is Aberporth. This small fishing village boasts two Blue Flag beaches and plenty of pubs and restaurants to explore. Wander along the Ceredigion Coastal Path and embrace the stunning sea views and rugged scenery.

Head to the beach then settle down at one of the eateries to round off your day. From classic fish and chips at Caffi Sgadan to an ice cream from Cwtch Glanmordy, Aberporth offers a nostalgic seaside experience.

New Quay - T5

Hailed as ‘the prettiest village in the UK’ in 2024, New Quay is a must-visit along the Cambrian Coast.

Known for being the best place for dolphin-spotting, head out onto a local boat trip to see some for yourself. Nestled within the village is a Blue Flag beach, where you can take part in kitesurfing, paddleboarding and more.

With pubs, cafes and restaurants dotted throughout the village, you’re spoilt for choice with places to devour some local cuisine. Award-winning fish and chip shop The Lime Crab is popular with locals and tourists alike, whereas The Watch Tower is known for delicious pizza and stunning panoramic views.

Aberaeron - T1, T5

Just a short distance from New Quay is the picturesque Aberaeron.

A colourful harbour, renowned local cuisine and quaint shops await you when visiting. With a clue in the name, the popular Harbourmaster provides tranquil harbour views and upmarket dining. If you’d prefer a snack whilst you wander, head to The Hive for a takeaway coffee and homemade honey ice cream. Explore the vibrant independent shops, from the cariad cushions of Driftwood Designs to the world of books at Gwisgo Bookworm.

Aberystwyth - T1, T2/T28, T5

Small but mighty, next stop is the popular seaside town of Aberystwyth.

To make the most of the breathtaking views on offer, head to the Aberystwyth Cliff Railway that takes you to the top of Constitution Hill. If you’re not keen on heights, enjoy a beach stroll and visit the pier.

The historic ruins of Aberystwyth Castle are worth seeing, as is Ceredigion Museum. Housed in a theatre, uncover centuries of Welsh heritage and discover unique artefacts, from archaeological treasures to Victorian costume. The museum is currently closed for renovation but is a must-see when it reopens.

Barmouth - T3/T3C

Last but certainly not least, end your trip of the Cambrian Coast in Barmouth.

Rain or shine, a great day out is on offer at Barmouth. Spend the day swimming in the sea and playing beach games or head to the arcades and use up your pennies on old-school games.

For a more scenic trip, the Panorama Walk is an absolute must. Spread across 4 miles, enjoy stunning views of the Cardigan Coast.
