Trecco bay advice please..

[kas750]

Thinking of a mini break and looking for advice about this area.
We always do a long weekend in the UK and last year we went to the east coast,year before Scotland,so we had a thought of trying south wales.
Any good?

great place if you have kids, loads for them to see / do with nice long beaches.

short hop away there are plenty of things to see / do if the weather is shite

it's a little bit too near AndC though so be prepared for a visit from the "Deaf un" at some point

what month you thinking of coming down ?

maybe its a Quay, Mark, not sure, however when the Waves hit it is is spectacular.

seen a few anglers washed to their backsides in the past.

about ten years ago i vowed to give up the 'Sauce' after seeing about twenty Elvis look alikes on the pier having a picture taken!!

it was the first time they held the Elvis convention, now held every year and a great attraction..........Ahhaaha

I used to work in the amusement arcade in the pink building on the front during the holidays - wasn't pink then though.
