Day 1: Arrive at St Davids 
For walking this section of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path you arrive at
St Davids.
Take an extra day to visit the island of Ramsey, an RSPB nature reserve. It is a vital breeding ground for seals, and thousands of seabirds nest on the cliffs, including puffins and Manx shearwaters.
On today's walk on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path you visit St Non's Bay and St Non's Chapel. As you walk around the end of St David's Peninsula you have great views of Ramsey Island and possibly even seals on the shoreline and schools of dolphins and porpoises in Ramsey Sound. You walk past the lifeboat station at St Justinian's and when you get to Whitesands Bay you head back inland to St David's for another night.
On leaving Whitesands Bay the Pembrokeshire Coast Path makes its way around St David's Head and then along the rugged coast to Abereiddy, Porthgain, and Trefin.
As you leave Trefin the Neolithic burial chamber of Carreg Sampson is well worth a visit. You are walking on a remote section of the Pembroke Coast Path today, finishing at Pwll Deri where there is an impressive hillfort, Garn Fawr.
Today you are walking around Strumble Head. The lighthouse sits on a small flat-topped island and guides the shipping into Fishguard Harbour. Great place for lunch and watch the ships go by!
Leaving Fishguard your walking holiday takes you through the quaint harbour at Lower Fishguard. Then you strike out along the clifftops to Dinas Head with the expanse of Fishguard Bay on your left. Having rounded Dinas Head you can see Newport Sands. Your destination for the night is the pretty town of Newport.
Another stunning day walking along the cliff tops on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. The Witches Cauldron is a massive collapsed cave which is open to the sea through a gigantic arch. You reach the highest point on the entire path at 574ft (175mtrs).
You round Cemaes Head and soon you are at Poppit Sands. Easy walk to finish along the estuary of the River Teifi to St Dogmaels and Cardigan.
or spend some time exploring the area.
We can assist with transfers to car or station.
