Whitesands Bay, St Bride's Bay, Pembrokeshire

SUNSET BAY

Limited Edition Print *

Whitesands Bay, Pembrokeshire, Wales

This is a twenty second exposure of Whitesands Bay at sunset.

Whitesands Bay is a wide sandy beach in St Brides Bay. It is located about two miles west of the small city of St. Davids and about one mile south of St Davids Head and has been described as the one of the best tourist beaches in the world.

It is said that St. Patrick had his vision to convert Ireland to Christianity here and set sail from the bay in the fifth century. The site of a Celtic chapel, dedicated to St Patrick, is located under a mound by the car park just to the east of the bay, at what is thought to have been the embarkation point for pilgrims to St Davids Cathedral.

At very low tide and after heavy storms the remains of an ancient, submerged forest can be seen on the beach, consisting of stumps of birch, fir, hazel and oak trees.
