Goscar Rock.


Norse-named Goscar Rock, the miniature mountain in the middle of North Beach, should also be treated with respect: a seven-year-old boy got stuck for hours when attempting to climb it last February. He was rescued by firefighters, helped by the police, and the coastguard helicopter landed on the beach to give medical assistance. By the way, if you espy a large sand circle, don’t think it is the work of aliens, however precise or intricate! It is far more likely to be the work of Welsh artist Marc Treanor.

The White family used tunnels running under St. Mary’s Church and their house, Jasperley House (now Boots Chemist), to hide future king Henry Tudor. His uncle and guardian, Jasper Tudor, Earl of Pembroke, used Tenby Harbour to flee with the 14- year-old Henry during the Wars of the Roses.


Boats landing on Caldey leave regularly, bookable at the harbour. Other boat trips take you on a seal safari, or a cruise around the island or a romantic sunset cruise. Or if you like to sail,
