What is the weather like on the Gower Peninsula today?
The Gower Peninsula’s weather is shaped by its exposed Atlantic coastline and subtle inland topography. The live forecast above indicates a typical spring mix: brighter spells over Rhossili and Port Eynon, with thicker cloud and the chance of a light shower pushing across the northern moors near Llanrhidian. Winds will be moderate, making it feel cooler on the cliffs than in sheltered spots like Parkmill.
- Coastal areas (Rhossili, Worm’s Head): fresher with a moderate westerly wind; visibility good but low cloud may drift in by late afternoon.
- Inland valleys and woodland (Gower AONB): calmer and a degree or two warmer, though mist can linger until mid-morning.
- Northern side (Llanmorlais, Penclawdd): most likely to catch a passing shower; check the UK weather hub for radar updates.
