The Cardigan Bay is part of the Atlantic Ocean near Wales of the United Kingdom. It is found in the Irish Sea and divides the Llyn Peninsula and Pembrokeshire Peninsula. The key rivers that flow into the bay are the Teifi River, the Rheidol River, the Dyfi River, the Aeron River and the Mawddach River.
Farmland is abundant along the coast, but it’s the sandy white beaches that draw the tourist to the area. They come to see the beautiful waters and to spot the dolphins that are frequent to the area. Many seaside resorts are home to the shores of Cardigan Bay. Some of them are Fishguard, New Quay, Aberaeron, Aberystwyth, Aberdyfi, Barmouth and Pwllheli.
Cardigan Bay is home to the mythical Lowland Hundred (the Welsh Atlantis), the kingdom that sunk into the sea when it was neglected by its Prince. It is rumored that the church bells of the sunken kingdom still ring today in times of danger. |
