Ceredigion holds a unique position in the history and culture of Wales. The coastal towns and villages provide excellent bases for exploration on foot, from Aberporth to Tresaith (a tiny place that many people overlook) to the long, sandy beach at Penbryn backed by sand dunes and woodland trails and Llangrannog, where a spectacular walk along the cliffs leads to the National Trust promontory at Ynys Lochtyn, and the popular traditional resort at New Quay, where the most renowned Welsh poet Dylan Thomas moved to in 1944 to escape the London blitz.
