Marloes Sands
Marloes Sands — a magnificent National Trust beach a half-mile walk from the car park. Crystal-clear water and dramatic sandstone cliffs, views of outlying islands, fossils, rock pools, surf and space. Good safe bathing when the weather is calm.
Marloes Sands has been used as a film location, most recently in Snow White and the Huntsman.
Musselwick
Musselwick is just outside the village of Marloes. Limited roadside parking opposite the public footpath that leads down to the coast path and beach.
The beach is completely submerged at high tide, but a fine beach of golden sand is exposed at low tide. Access is by footpath across a field and then a fairly tricky path cut into the rocks of the low black gully. Best visited an hour or two before low tide.
St Brides Haven
A pretty cove with bright red cliffs. Interesting rock pools, safe bathing and good snorkelling — popular with canoeists exploring the inlets and caves. Look out for stone-lined coffins exposed by coastal erosion in the cliffs by the lime kiln.
Martin's Haven
About a ten-minute walk from the campsite, Martin's Haven is a small pebble beach used as the embarkation point for the Skomer Island boats.
On the way down you pass the marine exhibition centre at Fisherman's Cottage — learn about marine life in the Skomer Marine Conservation Zone and find out the best places to watch for seals and porpoises.
The award-winning Lockley Lodge Visitor Centre is near the National Trust car park — information about the marine reserve, a gift shop, ice creams, drinks and locally produced food. All Skomer Island boat tickets are purchased here.
