On your journey in our beautiful waters you will encounter the history of Milford Haven with its historical forts, as you continue on your journey the golden sands of secluded tiny beaches, quaint villages and wildlife will open your eyes to a beauty never seen before.

I believe spring and summer is the most magical time to visit our shores and coastline, as the unique waters and breeding habitats have produced a wealth of new life. Seals are often seen bobbing in the waterway. As you navigate towards the Islands of Skomer and Skokholm you will see cetaceans such as harbour porpoise, common and bottlenose dolphins, or even a whale!

Boat trips to Skomer Island are truly spectacular; the island has something for everyone. Best known for its breeding populations of Atlantic puffins, Manx shearwaters, guillemots, razor bills, etc

The waterway has prime conditions for a diverse range of popular water sports, enjoy your days sailing, motor-boating, kayaking windsurfing or even paddle boarding these shores.
