The 10 Best Beaches in Pembrokeshire, Wales
The diminutive Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, a dramatic area of 225 square miles in southwest Wales, was set aside as a national park in 1952 and comprises a large portion of the Pembrokeshire coast and its islands and the moorland hills of Mynydd Preseli. Rugged cliffs and coastal rock formations are home to boisterous populations of seabirds, porpoises, whales, seals and dolphins. Cycle, hike or sea kayak around the spectacular coastline. Bird watching and rock climbing are also popular.

Owned by the National Trust and part of the amazing Stackpole Estate, 100's of thousands of Brits every year spend a fortune to fly to destinations in search of a beach of this quality. Other than the carbon foot print issue l hope this pattern continues since this will make the pure beauty of this beach and it's neighbouring twin - the one and only world class Barafundle Bay - sustainable for the smart and environmentally friendly family. This is still a treasured secret, as is the cottage we stayed in for the week, which enabled us to walk from our gorgeous holiday home, Wood Cottage, Cheriton Bottom woods, to all the surrounding beaches and the Bosherston Lily Ponds.

Our 3 children absolutely loved this beach - great waves for young body boarders and plenty of space for sand castles and rock pooling. There is a 5-10 walk from the large parking field at the top along paths and an ice cream van in the field at the top which helped the motivation back up! Unfortunately, we left our fishnets there so hope next youngsters get to enjoy their use in the rock pools!!

Beautiful, scenic walks on the coastal path brings you to this idealic family beach, where children can play and learn on the sand, in the rock pools or frolic in the gentle surf. The vast beach is clean and the Atlantic sea is refreshing cool and clear. The small resort is well supplied with a good supermarket and three pubs/restaurants.

Absolutely stunning views from the car park (which is free). We walked along one of the paths that led us down to a secluded beach. Was hidden from the wind and a beautiful hidden spot. I wouldn’t recommend for people who have trouble walking or prams etc.

Abermawr and the nearby Aberbach are one of those places thats a must to visit on a wild windy day in Pembrokeshire. They are not your typical sunworshipper places more whhOOO the beauty of the place hits you when you walk along the coast path and look down onto the wild windswept beach. If you are in Pembrokeshire put on your walking boots and hike down there. Its well worth the effort.
