Exploring the town

The boat leads straight to Priory Beach, which has a tranquil atmosphere that matches the island’s peaceful ambience.
Tenby Castle is a fantastically well-preserved historical landmark and is situated just out to sea so is accessible by foot at low tide. Snap a picture of it from the coast and explore inside for a close-up look at the stone architecture. The view of Tenby from the castle windows is the perfect photo opportunity.
Enjoy a beach day of swimming and building sandcastles at any of the three main beaches. Harbour Beach offers a great view of the marina, whilst Castle Beach is framed by the magnificent castle, and is a Blue Flag winner. South Beach stretches further down Tenby’s coast, meaning there is plenty of room to grab the perfect spot for the day. Walk along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path for stunning views of these beaches along 4.5 miles of a manageable coastal route.
Experience old-world Tenby at the Tudor Merchant’s House, a property with rooms showcasing 15th Century furniture and artefacts. This stone establishment is nestled amongst brightly painted rustic buildings down one of Tenby’s cobbled streets. The Tenby Museum and Art Gallery chronicles iconic moments in Tenby’s history, such as the story of when Henry Tudor had to escape from the town. This location is also the oldest independent museum in Wales.
