SALEM STRUMBLE HEAD, PEMBROKESHIRE
Pencaer peninsula, within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, is one of most unspoiled areas of Welsh coast. This is Britain's only truly coastal National Park. It offers a spectacular landscape of rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, wooded estuaries and wild inland hills, and a place of sanctuary for wildlife.
People also belong to the area and there is evidence of a long history of the shaping of the landscape. Enjoy the rich heritage of castles and tombs, ancient cottages and traditional fishing ports. The area is a living, working landscape which is cared for by the National Park Authority who are working for a sustainable future.
The Pencaer Peninsula has some of the finest scenery in Pembrokeshire. As well as the magnificent coastal walking and wonderful clean, pure air there is an abundance of wildlife. It is possible to see porpoises and spot dolphins and grey seals. Bird watchers will enjoy the bird migrations including the fabulous Manx Shearwater from the dramatic rocky Strumble Head with its unmanned lighthouse. The whole area is rich in megalithic remains and prehistoric sites, a treat for naturalists and geologists.
There are beautiful clean, safe beaches. Goodwick, next to Fishguard Harbour, has an easily accessible sand and shingle beach and is safe for most watersports. There are also opportunities for good fishing from the long break waters. The ferry to Ireland leaves from the far side of the harbour. Fishguard itself is a small, timeless market town with supermarkets, a range of shops, art galleries, pubs, cinema and several restaurants. With many children's activities available the area is an ideal place for a family holiday in Wales.
