Tidal Information
The Gower Peninsular juts out into the Bristol channel a body of water with the second-highest tidal range in the world (The highest is North Eastern Canada the Bay of Fundy) with extreme tides measuring over 49 feet (15m) recorded in Avonmouth. This huge tidal range is one of the factors which adds to the areas beauty. The low tides exposing miles of golden sands while the high tidies flood the estuaries and bays creating mirrors of sheltered waters.
Although beautiful the tides are always a consideration when planning walks and visits especially to Worms head, Rhossili always check the tide tables before you go and never try to swim the causeway if you do get cut off.
