The towering cliffs, sandy coves and thrusting headlands of the Pembroke Coast have an unsurpassed beauty and are of special interest to naturalists. The Pembrokeshire Coast Path dips and turns for some 200 miles from near Cardigan in the North to Amroth, east of Saundersfoot in the southeast. The inland scenery is no less impressive, with moorlands rising gently to the Preseli hills in The Pembrokeshire National Park.
St David’s is Britain’s smallest city, the origins of its cathedral dating from the 6th century. The nearby Bishops’ Palace (ruins) dates from the 13th century.
Tenby in the south of the county has a fine harbour and medieval castle ruins and town walls.
Caldey Island, off Tenby, has a thriving Cistercian monastery producing chocolate, cream and perfume. Ramsey, Skokholm and Skomer Islands, off the west coast are noted bird sanctuaries.
From Fishguard, in the north of the county, ferries leave regularly for Rosslare, Ireland. |
