Pembrokeshire overnight adventure

I’ve not posted in a while.

I took an impromptu road trip to Pembrokeshire in May, and that’s the quick summary.

Dinas head

📍 Newport Sands
📍Pwllgwaelod Beach
📍Dinas Head (including Pen Y Fan – highest point on the island
📍 Porthcawl

Improvised little adventure: solo road trip, car camping, hike and sandy toes, in just over 24h.

I left Swindon at 17:00 Saturday and back before 21:00 Sunday night.
First time car camping was great – see pic of the car with fairy light and all!

I camped by the beach, and had breakfast with the sound of the dawn chorus and waves at sunrise, took a nap and headed to Dinas head.

Lovely little stroll on Dinas Head. Pity about the mist/cloud coverage on the coast.
I’ll have to come back in good weather and look out for dolphins.
Still, well worth the road trip and car camping. Another very fun little solo adventure.

I stopped in Porthcawl on the way home. I went for a dip in the sea and the weather was gorgeous.

Total idiot: I scraped my right knee in the sea on a rock!
