The layered cliff of Nash Point itself is quite photogenic and catches the evening light. There's a nice lighthouse. The shore is made up of stepped limestone pavements which are great for photographic details, or as foreground interest for Nash Point or seascapes facing out to sea. Especially when they're glistening with water, reflecting the sky. You get these lovely rounded pools, often containing large round pebbles. In drab light it's not really that instpiring, but when the light is low it's actually an amazing place to shoot. (So is Dunraven bay a bit further down the coast).

Also consider Dunraven Bay which is very nice too.
With either one be absolutely sure to check the tide tables. It is on the Bristol Channel which has, if memory serves, the second fastest tide in the world. It is VERY fast so be careful.

Hello Joseph,
Really to echo Ihasa points, the location really does need good light more so than many other Coastal locations that I have photographed. Now, i have always struggled with Nash Point for various reasons, but here is a couple of my shots that I'm ok with, should they be of use, and at least give you an idea of whats there.
Also, be careful getting down to the shoreline, its an ankle breaking landscape, trying to navigate the boulders and limestone in the dead of night by head torch alone is a challenge

Theres a lighthouse and cliffs, not much else. just along the coast is Dunraven bay (as mentioned already) in my mind a better bet. Theres the walled garden (not sure what plants will be out now) the beach itself, and fantastic cliffs and a bit along the beach (passed the walled garden and down some steps) is a small beach waterfall Cwm Mawr.
Be aware that the tide can cut you off in places by the cliffs if your not careful, there is an escape ladder but it's a good way along, people have been caught before so plan your times with the tide.
