Morfa Dyffryn, Protected natural area in Gwynedd, Wales
Morfa Dyffryn extends across 741 hectares of coastline, featuring sandy beaches and dune systems between Barmouth and Harlech in North Wales.
The natural site, formerly part of Merionethshire, stands near the Dyffryn Ardudwy Burial Chamber, connecting the present landscape to Neolithic settlements.
Local communities actively participate in environmental education programs at Morfa Dyffryn, learning about Welsh coastal ecosystems and conservation methods.
Visitors can access the site through designated parking areas near Tal-y-bont Beach, with tide information available from the Barmouth station 7 kilometers away.
The protected area hosts specialized plant communities and migratory birds throughout different seasons, making each visit to the dunes a different experience.
