As John Wilson is unavailable for this one, Alan is taking the reins. Note that this is a Saturday trip, not the usual Sunday.. High tide is around 10 a.m., so we’d need to be there ahead of this. Meet at Pembrey Harbour at 9.30ish. (Google maps estimates a travel time of 1 hr 30mins from Cardiff). The plan is to then de-camp to Kidwelly later in the day. Please let Alan know by email if you intend coming – alanrosney@gmail.com.
The postcode for Pembrey Harbour is SA16 0HD, which is the same as that for the nearby Shoreline Caravan Park that you drive past down to the dirt car park. There’s a pdf map below. To get to Burry Port first I think it’s best to come off the M4 at J.47 Penllegaer, then take the A483 down to the 1st roundabout then go right onto the A484 and follow that all the way along, over the Loughor Bridge. This avoids Gorseinon, which is all 20 mph. After the bridge, stay on the A484 until the Parc y Scarlets roundabout. Go over that then immediately at the next big roundabout take the B4304, which loops round to the south of Llanelli past Machynys and eventually takes you to the roundabout by Sandy Water Park, where you take the A484 again that goes through Pwll and on to Burry Port. You eventually have to come off the A484 onto the B4311 that goes into Burry Port. Follow that until the left turn into Derwydd Road which is just after a bridge on a bend.
