About Porthcawl - Sker Beach and Pink Bay

Pink Bay is something of a hidden Porthcawl gem; very popular with local walkers, wildlife enthusiasts and surfers. It has a steep pebble bank leading down to the golden sands. The rocks at the top of the beach have a unique pink marbling effect in a certain light, hence the name Pink Bay. This beach is accessible via a 15 minute walk from Rest Bay along a boardwalk adjacent to the Royal Porthcawl Golf Club; it is a rural beach and as such has no toilets or other amenities. A monument to the crew of the Mumbles Lifeboat and the SS Samtampa – a 7,000 ton wrecked steamship - is visible at low tide on nearby Sker point.

Generally sandy and flat, it is mostly used by locals, making it one of the quieter beaches in Porthcawl. Like Pink Bay beach, it is classed as rural and as such has no toilets or other amenities.

Dogs are allowed on both beaches all year round.
