Walking
Abermawr Woods and Beach Walk, PembrokeWalking route1.6 km▾
A circular through bluebell woods & meadows, shingle beach & marsh. Abermawr offers a gentle interlude on one of the most rugged sections of the coastline. Brunel wanted to create a port & cable terminus here, but his plans never left the drawing board
Porthgain to Abereiddi Coastal Walk, PembrokeWalking route6.4 km▾
Enjoy some of Pembroke’s finest coastal scenery while exploring its industrial past. Porthgain once exported road stone all over the UK, while Abereiddi’s Blue Lagoon is a former slate quarry. Ynys Barri (or Barry Island), is home to an array of wildlife.
