Things To See & Do
Freshwater East Beach is a rural beach on the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path that measures nearly 1km across. At lower tide levels, your dog will have plenty of room to explore, run, and enjoy the water. You also have a small stream that enters the sea at the car park end of the beach.
Along with the beach is the local nature reserve, ‘The Burrows.’ Footpaths crisscross dunes, grassland, and woodland, and a boardwalk passes through a reed marsh.
Access and Facilities
At the bottom of Trewent Hill, the beach’s southern end, has a large car park and toilets. A caravan park with a dog-friendly pub/restaurant is just behind the beach and car park.
