There are very few dangerous locations around the Gower Peninsula, but if you are new or visiting the area and not aware of some dangers. One of the main callouts we get at Rhossili is people getting cut-off by the tide on the Worms Head in Rhossili, which attracts thousands of people to the area every year. This particular incident could easily be avoided if people checked the tide time tables, which are displayed in the window of the coastguard station in Rhossili as well as being available from most shops around Gower, but if people are still unsure you could always ring the Coastguard Station in Swansea (0870 6006505) for any further information, if you do decide to cross the casueway to the Worms Head the general rule is that you can cross two hours either side of low water. A clear message from the coastguards is that if you do become stuck on the island just try and attract attention from people on the mainland or if you have a mobile phone ring 999 and ask for the coastguard who will rescue you off the island, but DON'T TRY AND SWIM across from the island as it claimed many lives before.
