Amroth is located on the south coast of Pembrokeshire 7 miles east of Tenby and at the start (or end, if you walk it the other way round) of the world renowned 186 mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path.
There is a petrified drowned forest, which reveals itself when the tide is very low. The petrified tree stumps can be seen poking through the sand and they have been dated to the last ice age!
The coastal bus service number 351 links Amroth and the south coast to Tenby. Tenby and Saundersfoot both have a railway station.
During the 19th century, Amroth was an important anthracite coal mining area, with the coal being shipped out to Bristol and beyond.
Ironstone and stone quarrying have also featured in Amroth’s past so too has fishing with the local catch of salmon, cod and flatfish being taken to Tenby market for sale.
