Coasting along

Last week I was in Ceredigion filming for my new series of Weatherman Walking.

The walk started in New Quay and then along the new coast path to Cwmtydu and then Llangrannog, a distance of 9.4 miles.

Thankfully the weather was kind to us, often cloudy but dry with a little sunshine.

I've been to New Quay a couple of times in the past but have never walked along this part of the coast before. I fully recommend it.

We stopped at Bird Rock and along the way saw dolphins, seals and many sea birds. The views are spectacular too, on a clear day you can see the Lleyn Peninsula and Snowdon.

There are also small hidden beaches and coves accessible only by foot or by boat!

The walk takes you to Ynys Lochtyn and eventually Llangrannog where I enjoyed a beautiful sunset followed by a tasty dinner in the Ship Inn.

Yesterday I went to Southerndown for a beach BBQ with friends. We were lucky, the cloud which covered most of Wales broke and the sun shone and everyone had a nice time.

This week I am off filming again in the Brecon Beacons climbing Pen y Fan tomorrow and on Wednesday and then heading back west to Ceredigion for a walk near Tregaron on Thursday and Friday.

I hope I won't be needing my waterproofs this week!

The odd spot of drizzle is likely in the North and West otherwise its looking largely dry although as move into October it will turn slightly colder.
