A surfer's paradise in Pembrokeshire
Freshwater West is a beach near Castlemartin, Pembrokeshire, West Wales.
Part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, Freshwater West is a south-westerly facing beach, considered a surfer’s paradise by many enthusiasts, and is home to some of the best waves in Pembrokeshire.
Whilst it is considered the best place to watch surfing, it is advised that only experienced and strong swimming surfers tackle the waves, due to the strong rip currents that occur off the beach.
