Gower’s tides shape the landscape and rhythm of coastal life. Knowing when to visit beaches like Worm’s Head or Three Cliffs Bay safely is key to an enjoyable trip. A little awareness goes a long way towards protecting both you and the environment.
– **Tide Times Matter:** Worm’s Head is only accessible for a few hours at low tide.
– **Beach Flags:** Red & yellow = swim zone, red = no swimming.
– **Respect Nature:** Avoid cliff edges and nesting zones.
– **Leave No Trace:** Take all litter home.
– Always check tide times before exploring tidal areas.
– Swim only on lifeguarded beaches (Rhossili, Caswell, Port Eynon).
– Watch for soft sand and hidden currents.
– Supervise children closely — tides change quickly.
