Port Eynon
Infrastructure improvements, parking, bus facilities. Port Eynon is under considerable pressure during the height of the season and the main issues relate to: management of the carpark, poor quality of the toilets, traffic congestion and boat launching. There were also concerns about the large number of signs on the seafront, the road layout near the disabled carparking bays and the quality of the litter bins. In summary, Port Eynon appears neglected and under resourced and continues to deteriorate. Locally, there is appetite for a proposed new centre that could solve many of the main issues identified at Port Eynon, notably those relating to the management of the car park, the condition of the toilets, and boat launching procedures on the slipway. The main issues for Horton village are car parking, the condition of the toilet block, pedestrian access to the beach, the condition of boardwalks and the interpretation of the dunes.
