Between Caerfai and Whitesands
On this rugged section, you probably see everything from the thrill-seeking adventurers on the cliffs below to seals hauled up on inaccessible coves.
From the beachhead, at Caerfai the Coast path winds its way around St Nons Bay and past the chapel dedicated to St Non, the mother of St Davids, Wales’ patron saint.
As you walk towards the small inlet at Porth Clais keep an eye open for adventurers; kayakers, climbers, and coasteerers throwing themselves off the cliffs.
As you reach the headland after Porthlysgi beach you will have reached the most westerly point in Wales and Ramsey Island comes into view.
The Coast Path into St Justinian’s hugs Ramsey Sound and a stretch of water known locally as ‘the Bitches’ – it’s one of the fastest flowing stretches of water in the UK. Experienced kayakers can be seen ‘playing’ in the waves if conditions are right.

Accessibility
While Pembrokeshire offers a range of scenic walks for all abilities, not all paths are guaranteed to be fully accessible. If you or someone in your group uses a wheelchair, mobility scooter, or pram, there are still plenty of accessible routes, viewpoints, attractions, and beaches to enjoy.
For the best experience, plan ahead by checking accessibility guides or contacting local organisations, such as the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and the Walkability Project. Many beaches also offer concrete ramps and Beach Wheelchairs for easier access.
Please ensure you gather relevant information in advance to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
