Coasteering was born here in West Wales, inspired of course by the fantastically rugged and gorgeous coastline - the second best coastline in the world after New Zealand, according to National Geographic (and we're very happy to take their word for it!). Coasteering basically involves moving yourself along the coastline by scrambling over rocks, exploring caves, jumping off cliffs, hopping on rocks, rushing down waterfalls. It's a super fun way to explore the Pembrokeshire coast, discover the wonderful wildlife and enjoy the spectacular views that define this amazing part of the country. Sound good? Make sure you include it in your itinerary as part of your stay with us. The operators are excellent at catering to all ages from eight upwards, and all abilities and experience; so don't worry if you don't want to do the big cliff jumps, you don't have to. It's definitely advisable to book up with an accredited operator, as they will be very familiar with the coastline, the tides, the caves, and also when and where to avoid breeding birds and seals.

The extensive coastline and miles of unspoilt countryside provide all manner of options for fun and exciting activities. Either have a go yourself, or if you don't have the experience or the gear there are several local businesses which offer both. Pembrokeshire itself lays claim to the invention of coasteering, which is a scramble along cliffs both in and out of the water - a combination of the words 'mountaineering' and 'coast'. 4 Options Near to Trenewydd Farm
