Pembrokeshire has been voted the second best coastal destination in the world!

"National Geographic has voted Pembrokeshire the second best coastal destination in the world sharing second place with the Tutukaka coast in New Zealand and beating places like the Seychelles, Bermuda and Costa Rica.

Comments from the panelists include:

• Fabulous example of coastal protection with a very established tourism industry.
• The seafood and food grown in the adjopining fields are culinary treats.
• Land based and marine based conservation tourism appeals to all ages.

Pembrokeshire County Council member for tourism Counciler Rob Lewis said It is quite some achievement, especially when you consider that Pembrokeshire was competing against some stunning locations from all over the world.
Apart from our world famous 186 mile coast path and the fact that Pembrokeshire is the only coastal park in the UK, we also have over 50 beaches for holiday makers to choose from."
