Things to Do in Pembrokeshire

47 attractions and days out

Pembrokeshire's coast shapes much of what there is to do here, and the days out on offer reflect that. Around St Davids and the western headlands, coasteering outfits like Celtic Quest make the most of the cliffs and caves, while Marloes Sands draws walkers and beachcombers to some of the county's finest stretches of sand. Tenby and Saundersfoot lean towards family activities, with adventure centres, boat trips and lifeboat station visits alongside the usual seaside amusements.

Inland, the choices change character. Narberth and Kilgetty area attractions such as Green Lane Maize Maze and Dr Beynon's Bug Farm suit younger children, and Wild Lakes Wales gives older ones something more physical to do. Around Haverfordwest, Milford Haven and Pembroke, activity providers and paddling outfits make use of the estuary and river, a quieter alternative to the open coast further west.
