I think this picture was taken when aberavon had a beach to brag about?

Had a caravan holiday here August 1966. Bit more built up than 1929 but beach was brilliant. Pity my brother got a nasty cut from a broken bottle sliding down the dunes.

I agree that this image needs to be flipped. View is looking north west from the mouth of the Afon Afan towards Baglan Bay and Swansea. It would be really useful to see the image the right way round.

Image Ref WPW029772 View of Coast at Aberavon This image is reversed - the view is facing north to Swansea so the sea should be to the left
