Anyone recognize where this takes place?

Possibly could be Pendine Sands in South Wales, its quite common for the C130s to use hard sand strip there

Pembrey Sands
Pendine is no longer used. They used Saunton Sands in North Devon up until 2 years ago and now pretty much all beach landings take place at Pembrey.

That don't look like pembrey

No, I was thinking that as Jason, beach looks too long and straight, no sign of the tower or the Country Park car park.

Thought i saw a tower half way down? I was looking for it as well.... and saw a tower of some sort hence my decision.
Unless it's an older video and it could be Pendine. Its definitely not Saunton as there is no cliff..... but yes looking at it again the beach looks way too long so withdraw my Pembrey statement.

Saunton
