Strumble Head near Fishguard offers superb coastal walking and is on the route of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. The striking white lighthouse, automated since 1980, is a popular landmark. Seals are often spotted in the coves and bays and there are countless bird colonies which have made their homes in the rocky cliffs. An old observation post from the Second World War is now a bird observatory for the large numbers of birdwatchers who visit the area.
