Old Harbour

Found west of Friar’s Point on Barry Island, this is a popular place for dog walkers when the tide is out.
There’s a large expanse of sand with some rocks and shingle nearer to the road and nearby Knap Point, a grassy promontory.
When the tide is in the waves provide quite good surfing conditions, although I’ve never surfed here myself!
I used to be involved in the annual beach cleaning operation here and on Barry Island’s beaches and a fair bit of litter builds up from time to time which isn’t washed away by the tide.
