Tresaith is one of the locations most favoured by visitors to Ceredigion. It is almost a picture-book seaside village and offers a wonderful sandy beach.
A legend of seven...
The word "saith" means seven in Welsh and legend has it that, once upon a time, a king of Ireland had seven troublesome daughters. Having tried in vain to instill some element of control over the seven princesses the king finally lost his patience and ordered his daughters to be cast adrift in an open boat. The currents of the Irish Sea bore the craft towards the coast of Ceredigion and it beached here. The seven princesses fell in love with the sons of seven local Welsh families, married and settled down. Which explains why the settlement is called "Tresaith" - the town of seven!Coastal spleandour...
The Ceredigion Coast Path links Tresaith to neighbouring Aberporth and, at low tide it is possible - with care, having first consulted a copy of the Ceredigion Tide Tables - to walk along the foreshore all the way to the golden beaches of Penbryn, to the north.Penbryn, its sand dunes and surrounding woodland, is managed by the National Trust.
