Burry Port Lighthouse (Welsh: Goleudy Porth Tywyn) is a lighthouse in Burry Port. Burry Port harbour was built between 1830 and 1836 to replace the harbour at Pembrey, located 400 yards to the west. Burry Port was once the main coal exporting port for the nearby valleys, but the dock now houses the only marina in Carmarthenshire, and the harbour was dredged especially for this purpose.

Burry Port Lifeboat Station (near Llanelli, Carmarthenshire, Wales) was first opened in 1887, the cost of the station defrayed from a legacy bequeathed by the late Mrs J S Barclay of Edmonton and, in accordance with her wishes, the boat was named David Barclay of Tottenham (ON110), after her late husband.The Royal National Lifeboat Institution had taken over a lifeboat station at Llanelli in 1854, 2 years after it opened, but decided to close the station, and relocate the lifeboat operations to Pembrey in 1863. However, due to a constant increase of sand at Pembrey, it was necessary to move once again, this time to Burry Port.Reopening in 1973, the station currently operates a D-class (IB1) named Williams & Cole (D-882) and a B-class (Atlantic 85) named The Misses Barrie (B-915)

Carmarthen Bay Power Station was an electricity power plant on the north shore of the Burry estuary in Wales in operation from 1953 to 1984.

Broughton Bay is a beach of the Gower Peninsula, South Wales, located at the north western tip. The bay is backed by sand dunes further inland. Access to the adjacent Whiteford Sands beach to the west is only available at low tide. The bay is not suitable for swimming or other water sports due to its proximity to the Loughor estuary. The waters experience very strong currents from the Loughor estuary with powerful waves along with high tides and shifting sand banks. When a strong south westerly wind is blowing, dedicated windsurfers can be seen on the waters near the bay. Nearby villages include Llangenith, Llanmadoc and slightly farther is Llanrhidian. These villages are located near the access points to the beach via short lanes. There are caravan parks at each end of the bay but the beach tends to remain quiet even during summer periods, partially because there is no life guard on duty.

Llangennith (Welsh: Llangenydd/Llangynydd) is a village in the City and County of Swansea, South Wales. It is located in the Gower. Moor Lane leads westwards to a caravan park near Rhossili Bay and Burrows Lane leads northwards to a caravan park overlooking Broughton Bay.
