Can you detect pendine beach nowadays.ta.

As far as i am aware the left hand side of beach clearly marked is forbidden....as its M.O.D. Area
The right hand side of beach was ok but its been some time since i was there so best to check first..Paul.

Hemm!!.....good question !!...as far as I'm aware its still a no go area..the problem is/was that a great deal of unexploded ordnance has been discovered on a fairly regular basis.
If it were me,I would stay away,there's plenty of other beaches around to detect on..plus you could save yourself a fairly hefty fine !!....good luck,and good hunting..👍

Might be worth checking it out with someone at Carmarthen Council.
As you go down to the beach from the car park the LEFT side has been banned for a number of years and was patrolled by a man on a tractor who would tel you to 'go away'.
The right side was always open to detecting but closed a couple or so years ago, after a big storm uncovered some ordnance. Could well be 'open' again by now.
