National Mud Festival of Wales
Date: 6 - 7 Sep 2008 (annual)
Theme: Air Creatures
Rating: 2 Stars
The Mud Walk involves a trip down to the estuary at low-tide to explore the wildlife at the water's edge. Fun and games include the Wellie Wanging Competition and a Tug-of-War, also known as the Mud-of-War.
Visitors can get creative making mud sculptures, a mud hut or even (edible) mud pies.
When you've had enough of mud, take a look around the centre, which is home to many birds, including ducks, geese, swans and flamingos.
