Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
The only coastal national park in Britain: 186 miles of cliff path, beaches, islands full of seabirds, and the Preseli hills.
Pembrokeshire is a national park made of coast. The Coast Path runs the whole length of it, over cliffs and down to beaches that are empty most of the year, past islands where puffins and gannets nest and seals pup in the autumn. Inland, the Preseli hills are where the Stonehenge bluestones came from.
St Davids, Tenby, Fishguard and Newport are the bases, and the coastal bus services make linear walks easy.
