Abereiddi to Abermawr Within Pembrokeshire Coast National Park to the north-west of St David's and south-east of Fishguard - a wild stretch of coastline from blue lagoon to beach, via the fishing village of Porthgain, and some impressive former quarry workings. The spectacular lagoon is actually a flooded former slate quarry working with a tidal channel to sea. |

Cilgerran Castle, near Cardigan Managed by the National Trust, this 13th Century Norman castle is ruinous, although two large towers still remain. It stands on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Teifi gorge, a wonderful setting with walks down to the riverside, sometimes rewarded with glimpses of kingfishers and otters. |

Great for coastal wildlife. St. David's Visitor Centre in St. David's offers a lively introduction to National Trust places to visit in Pembrokeshire. |

Stackpole and Bosherston Lakes Set in the southern part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, with sandy beaches, wooded valleys and lily ponds. Three narrow valleys were flooded between 1780 and 1860 to create extensive, tranquil lakes at Bosherston, an important nature reserve (home to otters) and great for walking. |

Stackpole's Barafundle Bay Considered by some to be the loveliest beach in Pembrokeshire — in a secluded, unspoilt bay set between limestone cliffs and backed by dunes and woods. It can only be reached via a cliff path walk from Stackpole Quay, a tiny harbour with a tea room. |
