Broad Haven South, Sandy beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales
Broad Haven South is a wide sandy beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales, with a spacious bay stretching along the coastline and a prominent rock formation known as Church Rock standing roughly 150 yards from shore in clear water. The bay is framed by rocky cliffs and offers views of the natural coastal landscape.
The beach lies within the Stackpole Estate, which has been under National Trust protection since the mid-twentieth century to preserve its natural features. The estate was established to protect this coastal zone as a nature conservation area.
The beach is part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and connects visitors to Welsh coastal heritage through marked walking paths and viewpoints.
The beach is accessible via a car park where toilets and seasonal refreshments are available, providing basic amenities for a visit. The nearby village of Bosherston, roughly one kilometer away, offers additional dining and other services.
The beach connects to Bosherston Lakes through a dune system where a freshwater stream flows from the lily ponds to the ocean. This unusual connection creates a rare habitat where freshwater and saltwater meet and interact.
