Sitting on the estuary of the Afon Mawddach and Cardigan Bay, Barmouth is a dreamy town. Home to Traeth Abermaw Beach, it is also a coastal paradise that lures beach-goers and sun-seekers. Besides sandy shores, Barmouth has mountainous landscapes that attract hikers and campers. If you like to soak in the scenery but are not interested in long treks, you can go on a scenic ride on Fairbourne Railway. There are also restaurants and nightspots that are scattered in the town center. Also, since Snowdonia National Park is just an hour from here, many tourists make Barmouth their home base.
