Why We Love This…
“I absolutely love coasteering in Pembrokeshire, with St. Nons being my favourite spot. Not only is it an amazing hangover cure, it’s just a great feeling to be out there in the big blue on a playful activity, exploring caves and jumping from fun heights. Most of the time we’re the only people there, other than a few kayakers, which really adds to that adventure feel. The Bishops pub in St. Davids serves good food for afterwards, with a nice beergarden to catch some rays.”
