Other than being slightly windy, we had struck lucky with the weather which was great news for us but not so great for parking! It seemed that quite a few people had also decided to take a trip to Barry Island yesterday, fortunately we found parking in the large car park not far from the water front. (We also found out this is free on a Sunday! Win!)

We then made our way towards the beach and spent all afternoon walking back and forth, taking photos and embracing the environment. Although the surrounding shops still breathed the same air that they did back in 90's with the sounds of gambling machines lining the road, the beach itself is a very different story. Once away from the built up area, the atmosphere instantly changed.

You could hear the waves gushing along the beach, you could feel the soft sand under your feet, and you could see dogs cheerfully enjoying the freedom of this beach. It was beautiful. The beach was clean, no sight of litter or vandalism, and very welcoming. As we strolled along, we laughed with passing strangers and watched the sun set. It was a perfect Sunday.
Barry Island has had some recent development with the additions of colourful beach huts and a rock climbing wall, but I still think it has huge potential. Therefore, I hope, for the sake of welsh seaside attractions that these developments continue to add to the beauty and improve this old relic.
