St David's Head is a dramatic headland northwest of St David's and Whitesands beach dominated by the peak of Carn Llidi. The small and rugged peninsula is rich in flora and fauna and boasts geology that dates back almost 500 million years. From this spot, you are afforded magnificent views over the Irish Sea.

Hiking

This is an amazing place to see sunset from. It is close to White Sands Beach where you can park and walk along to St David’s Head.

Hiking

Hiking boots on, a good hiking map, something to drink, a snack to eat and off you go on the journey of discovery in one of the most beautiful corners of Wales
