Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I’ve never heard of Slapton, sounds like a sitcom place 😊

Slapton Sands saw rehearsals for the Normandy landings in 1944. I think it featured in an edition of 'Coast' on the Beeb.

Tenby's a proper Welsh seaside town. I used to visit friends in Castlemartin, 10 miles away, and loved exploring town & beach.

*shakes tiny fist at OH's cyclo-cross race which has meant no seaside for us this weekend*

Instead I'm cross-training by cutting a long, long hedge :-(

Hedge hugs.

The M25 was appalling and the M5 isn't any better. It's been 7 hours and we aren't even there yet. Stopped for cold water as the aircon doesn't work and we've been cooking in the car.

We saw a whale when we stayed near Slapton. I love Tenby and Saundersfoot. This was the view from our bedroom window the last time we stayed in Saundersfoot.

Swittle - this is the tank on the seafront.



Did 4 miles on the paddleboard and could have stayed out there all day. Saw a seal very close by.

Also had my first ever proper sea swim too 😁
