Lydstep is a sand and shingle beach in an idyllic setting with dramatic views overlooking Caldey Island. Facilities at the beach include jet skiing, windsurfing, canoeing, amusement arcades and a leisure centre. The area is popular with walkers wanting to experience the unrivalled beauty of the Pembrokeshire coastal path, which forms part of the Pembrokeshire National Park. At low tide there are a number of caves to explore, including a smugglers cave. There is a free National Trust car park within walking distance on the southern headland of the beach.
