Saundersfoot Activities Attractions in Pembrokeshire

Saundersfoot was a small village. It was transformed in the 19th Century into an industrial port exporting coal and iron from local collieries. To day, there are no more coal-laden coasters, but a delightful seaside resort with its flotilla of fishing and pleasure boats. Saundersfoot offers a vast range of activities from Bowling Green to fishing trips, from tennis courts to night clubbing in the evening. There are many pubs and restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets. Saundersfoot is situated within the Pembrokeshire National Park. Leisurely strolls along sandy beaches, walk across rugged cliff tops, woodlands or winding footpaths, there is something here, for everyone. If nothing else, come and marvel at our astonishingly spectacular scenery.

Do not miss Tenby, an historic walled town, Bosherston village, famous for its Lilly ponds, St. David, the smallest city in the UK, Pembroke Castle or quaint little villages such as Solva, Dale or Little Haven. Take a boat to Caldey Island, an island inhabited by monks, Skomer Island to watch seals, puffins, cormorants and numerous species of sea birds. Visit a tranquil spot like Colby woodlands or Begelly water gardens.
