Heading to Abergele beach?
Planning to extend your adventure to Pensarn beach? We’ll have a full blog on this coming soon but in the mean time be aware that a small section of the beach restricts dog access from May to September. This is from the embedded wooden posts by the cafe and the embedded concrete posts at the west end of the promenade, but rest assured, there's still plenty of beach outside these areas for you and your pooch to enjoy.
