Layde Bay
Highlight • Beach
This is a pleasant beach to soak up the sun but swimming is not generally advised as with many of the beaches along the Bristol Channel coast. There can be strong currents as the tide moves and the sand towards the low water mark is decidedly muddy.
That said Ladye Bay is home to the annual “Long Swim” which covers about a mile down to Clevedon Pier.
Layde Bay is also a popular climbing spot with a variety of climbs.
