Tenby

Tenby has no less than three beaches - North, South and Town (also called Castle) - so you can always find one sheltered from the wind. At the height of the holiday season parking in Tenby is scarce, so an early start is recommended.


North beach
is a long expanse of flat sand with the harbour at one end, and the famous Goskar Rock at its centre. Behind is a steep cliff.

South beach is a very long, sandy beach with a cafe. It commands a superb view of Caldey Island.

Town beach is much smaller than the others, but it has more amenities being closer to the town centre. It is situated beneath the castle and adjacent to St Catherine's Island.


All beaches are close to shops and toilets, and are accessible by wheelchair. Boat trips, including those to Caldey Island, are bookable near the harbour.


North beach is popular for on and offshore activities. Caldey Island
can be seen in the background
