Iron Age people lived on Pembrokeshire`s most westerly point and they defended their settlement by building three stone ramparts, still visible today. Within the fort are the foundations of six circular huts. This rugged headland was known in Roman times as The Promontory of the Eight Perils, referring to the offshore rocks. It is a good place for spotting porpoises, and also for bird watching. There are spectacular views towards Ramsey Island. The headland can be reached by walking about one mile alng the coastal footpath from the car park at Whitesands Bay.
