Popular seaside resort offers entertainment for all

Barry Island is very much the traditional seaside resort with its long sandy beach, amusement arcades and fun fair, attracting visitors from far afield. Seafront shops will tempt your taste buds with ice-cream, candy floss and fish and chips.

And in summer months weekends are buzzing with street theatre and live music. There is fun for everyone at Barry Island!

Beach Fun

The south facing beach of Whitmore Bay is a sweeping crescent of golden sand with rock pools just waiting to be explored.

The children will have a great time in this sheltered bay making sandcastles, splashing in the waves and enjoying the summer entertainment.

Summer Entertainment

On weekends during July and August a programme of live entertainment takes place on Barry Island's Promenade.

Street theatre including magic, acrobat and comic stunts can be enjoyed by all. There are also cabaret acts, jazz musicians and - more traditionally - brass bands.
