Bridgend sits right between Cardiff and Swansea, which makes it handy for almost anything.
Find Your Connection, Join FreeThe beaches at Porthcawl are close by for surfing at Rest Bay, the dunes at Merthyr Mawr are made for a long, sandy walk, and you can cross the stepping stones to Ogmore Castle before heading to the sea at Ogmore-by-Sea. Bryngarw Country Park is a good shout for a relaxed first date. If you commute and want to meet someone local without wasting evenings, HoopFrog's compatibility questionnaire helps with exactly that.

Verifying a phone number before you can message helps keep throwaway accounts out and real people in the conversation. It is one of the simplest ways to make dating feel safer, and you can add the optional live selfie check too.
Grab chips and walk the prom at Porthcawl, explore the dunes at Merthyr Mawr, or hop across the stepping stones at Ogmore Castle. All three are outdoors, free and give you plenty to chat about.
Date with intelligent compatibility pairing, not endless swiping.
