General Info

How to get there

Make your way to Pembroke (make sure you stop to look at the castle) and head out west towards Angle. You will pass the Oil refinery and the MOD site on your left. Keep going and it is soon signposted.

Where to Stay

When I went I camped in the dunes. Not sure if you still can though.

Access & Parking Info / Cost

Access and parking right next to the beach. Parking can get busy, especially at the weekend and public holidays. Parking is free.
