Pembrokeshire Coast Path
Coast Path Safety Code
Take care on the Coast Path - it's rugged, natural terrain. Please follow the Coast Path Safety Code:
- Keep to the path, away from cliff edges and overhangs.
- Always supervise children, especially near cliff edges.
- Walking surfaces can vary considerably with the weather. Always wear strong footwear with a good grip.
- Wear or carry warm and waterproof clothing.
- Cliff-top walking can be dangerous in high winds.
- Beware of taking shortcuts across beaches - you may be cut off by the tide. Swimming can also be dangerous.
- Do not sit under cliffs or climb them.
- Keep dogs under close control.
- Remember - the Coast Path is for walkers. Most of its length is not suitable or safe for cycling or horse riding.
