  • Follow a cave at the top of a slate query and you will find this hidden Blue Pool, hidden in the Wales country side about 5 miles from Barmouth on the other side of the estuary.

      I've been going there since i was about 5. Used to be really quite. Never see a single person. Now if you look at the reviews on trip advisor, people are coming with tour guides on trips from London...

      Did you stay in Fairbourne. I went on an outwound bound course in the 80`s and we all stayed in place for that sort of thing on the seafront.

      @@damianbutterworth2434 We stayed in Arthog, a couple of miles out, in a converted village hall. We spent lots of time on the beach in Fairbourne. I remember the miniature railway. I also made the grave mistake of eating an entire Kendal mint cake that I bought from a shop there! 🤢

      Unfortunately I think it was more the idiots that kept leaving their litter behind and disrespecting the place that ruined it. Or maybe the coach tours that kept turning up 🤷‍♂️ oooor it was me and my following 😅

    Absolutely brilliant! I love the injection of authenticity (camera positioning etc).... REALLY good - thank you! If you don't mind me asking, what camera were you using?

      @AshThomasFilms  3 роки тому

      Hey mate. Thanks for watching. At the time of that video I used for Nikon J1. I now use a Canon 200D. I think the 200D is a better camera. The sound is better straight off. There is a lot of background noise with the J1

      I'm at Shell island at the moment. Just making a new video at the moment. There is plenty to do. Especially with the weather like it is at the moment. If you are leaving Shell for the day go and find the Blue lake. Even though from the comments on here it's been closed off. Its still worth a look.
