Newport Parrog

Highlight • Beach

Newport Parrog was once a bustling wool, slate and herring port. Today, it's very popular with visitors to Pembrokeshire and occupies an enviable position on the famous coast path. This stretch can become cut off during high tides, so it's worth checking the tide times in advance.

Cwm Beach

Highlight • Beach

Cwm is a very picturesque spot to the west of Newport. This tiny bay, where a little stream empties into the Irish Sea, provides a splendid view across towards Newport Sands and the cliffs to the north. It's only a short walk from Newport Parrog to get here and further west is a delightful stretch of coast.

Aber Rhigian Bay

Highlight • Natural

Lovely swim spot. You can't drive down to this beach so it is pretty secluded and quiet. There is a road but you can't park there just drop offs 😅 lovely little bay on the coast path would highly recommend stopping off for a swim!

Newport Estuary

Highlight • Beach

Newport is an idyllic little town occupying the spot where the Preseli Hills range drops to meet the sea at the River Nevern's estuary. It's well known for its street cafes, art galleries and superb dining, as well as the quality of hiking that can be sought in the region.

To the south rises Preseli outlier Mynydd Carningli, a rough and rocky 1,135-foot (346 m) summit that affords spectacular views of the coast and the surrounding countryside.
