Barafundle Bay, Sandy beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

The curved stretch of golden sand at Barafundle Bay extends between limestone cliffs, bordered by pine trees and dunes along the shore.

The Cawdor family of Stackpole Court constructed stone steps and walls to access their private beach during their ownership of Barafundle Bay.

Welsh band Gorky's Zygotic Mynci named their fourth album 'Barafundle' in 1997, connecting this location to Welsh musical heritage.

Access requires a half-mile walk from Stackpole Quay car park, with no facilities directly on the beach except those at the nearby quay.

The geological boundary at Barafundle Bay marks the transition from carboniferous limestone cliffs to old red sandstone from the Devonian period.
