Hey bird! you want to visit South West Pembrokeshire? To make the best out of your visit you should follow the rule: ‘there is no bad weather, there is just bad clothing’.
It also helps if you’re not afraid of long distance walking, usually next to high cliffs and rocks. And it get’s even better if you jump into a wetsuit and into the cold sea! Once you’re familiar with these things you’ll enjoy this little map and you will learn to love this little place. And I shall warn you that the friendly people in Wales may make it so welcoming that you stay for longer than just a few days…
