Sharing a magical evening at Whistling Sands (Porthor) with Socks and Lily. Just a short drive from Pen-yr-orsedd Camping and Caravanning, this golden sands beach is worth every minute.

What makes Whistling Sands so special?

• The Sound: The sand squeaks or whistles underfoot due to its unique particles, making it one of only two beaches in Europe with this feature.
• The Scenery: Backed by steep grassy cliffs, this National Trust beach offers stunning views and breathtaking sunsets.
• Activities: Ideal for surfing, bodyboarding, paddling, and exploring rock pools. Be cautious of strong currents. The nearby Wales Coast Path offers excellent walks.
• Facilities: Parking, toilets, and a café open during peak season.

If you're visiting Pen-yr-orsedd or anywhere on the Llŷn Peninsula, add Whistling Sands to your itinerary—listen out for the squeaking sand!
