Worms Head is the long, thin headland marking the farthest end of Gower, the broad peninsula in the west of Glamorgan. Like much of Gower, it is owned by the National Trust.
This is a craggy headland, an island at high tide. Remarkably, the remains of a fort stand on the dry part of the headland. The punishing sea has driven beneath the island to create "the Devil's Bridge", and at the end the waves have carved a blow hole.
