Highlights of the Pembrokeshire Coast

Walking information

The walking is mainly along coastal tracks and paths with some woodland sections. There are many ascents and descents as you dip in and out of beaches and bays. As you are walking over high cliffs, often with sheer drops down to the sea, a head for heights is necessary.

Day 1: Arrive in St David's

Take time for a stroll to the city's famous cathedral before your briefing.
You stay at the Tŷ Boia B&B (breakfast included)

Day 2: Whitesands to St David's 12km/7.5mi/4.5hr

We take you to the appropriately named Whitesands Bay. From here follow the path to St Justinian's, a small harbour with its lifeboat stations dramatically nestled in the low cliff face. There are spectacular views of Ramsey island as far as Pen Dal-aderyn, the most western point in Wales, then the vast expanse of St Bride's Bay dramatically opens up before you.

Day 3: Solva to St David's 10km/6mi/3hr

After a private transfer to the pretty harbour village of Solva, follow the Solva River to the coast and the stunning natural sea arch at Gewni Island. There are tremendous views of unspoilt cliffs and beyond, to the islands of Skomer and Skokholm. Continue to St Non's Bay and the panoramic ruins of St Non's Chapel, said to be the birthplace of St David himself, before returning to St David's.

Day 4: Elegug Stacks to Stackpole Quay 13.5km/8.5mi/3.5hr

Start the day with a small detour to the Green Bridge of Wales, a spectacular natural sea arch with superb sea vistas. The route then hugs the coast to Huntsman's Leap, an impressive narrow chasm cut deep into the cliff face, and the iconic St Govan's chapel. Spot the resident otters at the nature reserve in Bosherton, famous for its resplendent waterlily strewn lakes, then it's truly sublime walking over flat limestone cliffs to the stunning Barafundle Bay. We meet you in Stackpole Quay and take you to Tenby, home for the next 3 nights.
You stay at the Sleepy Puffin (breakfast included)

Day 5: Manorbier to Tenby 14km/9mi/4hr

A morning transfer to pretty Manorbier with its dune backed shores and brooding Norman castle ruins, then set off for King's Quoit, a Neolithic burial chamber perched high on the cliff top overlooking Manorbier Bay. Then it's on to the impressive arches, hidden caves and rocky coves of Skrinkle Haven. There's the option to detour around the Lydstep Point for more superb vistas, before you take to the cliffs again as you head to Tenby.
You stay at the Sleepy Puffin (breakfast included)

Day 6: Amroth to Tenby 12km/7.5mi/3.5hr

We take you to Amroth and its 'submerged forest' - a series of 5000 year old tree stumps which magically appear on the beach at low tide. Continue to Wiseman's Bridge, a tiny village with a rocky beach, before heading through disused mining railway tunnels to picturesque Saundersfoot. A fish and chip lunch overlooking the lovely beach perhaps, then an undulating woodland path takes you back to Tenby.
You stay at the Sleepy Puffin (breakfast included)

Day 7: Leave Tenby
