St Justinian Lifeboat Station

St Justinian lifeboat station is situated on a beautiful part of the coast around St David’s. There are often lots of boats around here and sometimes you get to see the lifeboat in action, setting off and bringing people back. Such a stunning part of the coastal path.

Stackpole Quay Rock Arch

From this position, you are afforded a magnificent view of this natural rock arch. Shaped by centuries of waves and weather erosion, this limestone arch truly is testament to the strength of nature.

View of the Pembrokeshire Coast and Tidal Currents

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

It's worth coming here for the currents alone, they are amazing. If you are lucky, as we were, you will see seals, too. If possible check timetables for tides to go at the best times. We had such awesome waves, that I was really astonished and delighted, especially as a whitewater kayaker.

Porthlysgi Bay

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A great little rocky and sandy bay visited while running the coast path. Stop for a swim or just to watch the sea. This bay has been the site of many shipwrecks.

St. Davids Natural Rock Arch

Highlight • Natural Monument

Thanks to the easily eroded limestone that forms the South Pembrokeshire Coast, there are lots of magnificent natural formations to be found. This particular natural rock arch is one of a few in the area but is one of the most impressive. You are afforded spectacular sea views from this point, too.

Porthclais Harbour

Highlight • Viewpoint

Porthclais is a wonderful natural harbour on the south of the Treginnis Peninsula near St Davids. It's a popular spot for launching canoes or small boats and a great place to begin a coastal run.
