Caerfai Bay is one of the most gorgeous places to visit in Pembrokeshire.

Just a 20-minute walk from St David’s, the beach has numerous areas to enjoy a picnic while admiring the astonishing sea views.

At low tide, there are plenty of rock pools to explore at Caerfai Bay and at high tide the beach represents a small rocky cove.

The bay is also defined by its range of coloured rocks, featuring grey, green and vivid pink.

Due to its cliffs on either side the beach is ideal for swimming, but bathers should remain vigilant of the strong currents in the sea off Caerfai.
