Pembrokeshire Coast

The clear waters of the vast Atlantic Ocean offer a range of water sports from kayaking to surfing with immaculate Blue Flag award-winning beaches like Tenby and Whitesands being the ideal destination for families with young children. Quieter beaches like Wisemans Bridge, Musselwick and Traeth Llyfn are never crowded and dog-friendly except in peak season.

The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park is the only one of its kind in Britain and comprises varied landscapes of dramatic rugged cliffs, white sandy beaches, moorland hills and wooded estuaries and valleys.

The lovely Nolton Cross Caravan Park in Haverfordwest is in the perfect place for joining the Pembrokeshire Coast Path to enjoy the most breathtaking sea views. 

Take to the sea with a choice of gentle boat trip cruises that tour the islands off the Welsh coast or, for a more exhilarating adventure, you could enjoy a speedboat sea safari. You might even see dolphins swimming alongside the boat or seals on the islands as well as a variety of unusual birds overhead.
