Tenby Coast Guide Tenby is a 'picture post card' resort on the Pembroke peninsular that can traces its origins back to the time of the Norman conquest. The current town was mostly built by the Victorians - who did like to live beside the seaside! There are some excellent beaches which are ideal for families and for swimming and beach activities.
Pastel tinted houses line the winding streets above the picturesque harbour at the heart of the town. There is an excellent selection of bars and restaurants to tempt the visitor. Tenby is something of a party town at night - you may get caught up in rowdy stag and hen nights - which can lead to some interesting situations! Caldey Island lies a mile or so to the south of the town and is home to a Cistercian Monastery and also grey seals and many varieties of seabirds. boats trips operate from the harbour during the summer months. There is excellent walking along the cliffs above the town and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path runs along here towards Pembroke. Just along the coast from Tenby is the small seaside village of Saundersfoot which has beaches and a marina. Pendine Sands, to the east, was the location for several attempts at the land speed record.
