The area abounds in wildlife and the mild climate ensures that spring arrives early and autumn lingers. Trips to the offshore islands operate most months of the year - spring and autumn are the best times to see seals and porpoises.

More adventurous activities such as coasteering and kayaking are available, as are a number of theme parks.

Historical visitor attactions include Pembroke Castle in an idyllic setting on a river estuary and St David's Cathedral and Bishop's Palace (25-minutes' drive). Or go further back in time and visit a reconstructed iron-age fort.
