St Davids Daily Weather Forecast
As a boat operator we use a range of forecasting sites. If you want a user-friendly forecast Windfinder shows wind strength and direction, wave height (swell) and likely rainfall. The Met Office gives pressure, wind and rainfall charts and the Ma Simes Surf Report gives daily surf updates for Whitesands beach, St Davids and a photo to show you what you're missing!
St Davids Accommodation
The places listed here have been recommended by our passengers and friends. For more details please see our blog.
Camping Trellyn and Ty Parke offer beautiful peaceful surroundings with all the facilities you need (and a few more besides). Our passengers have enjoyed the freedom of 'real' camping (with camp fires) and more exotically the yurts and tipis for those like to adventure in comfort. Both sites offer traditional camping and luxury yurts and tipis, an experience in themselves! Excellent value for money and run by really great people.
B and Bs Passengers have spoken very warmly of Amber Cottage, the food (local and organic where possible) and the lovely views from the garden terrace. Great value for money and in easy walking distance of St Davids restaurants and the Cathedral and just 1 mile from the sea. Erinfa is 15 minutes' drive from St Davids. Our foodie friends have been impressed by the breakfasts and the sitting room with log burner - perfect for those days when Pembrokeshire isn't as warm as you'd hoped (but still as beautiful). Caerhys is an organic farm 10 minutes' drive from St Davids. Its rooms have lovely views of nearby Abereiddy beach and the organic food, some of it produced on the farm, is apparently very tasty! The Old School Hostel in Trefin used to be a Youth Hostel. It retains its friendly character but has been refurbished and is now being run as a B and B and self-catering for singles and groups. It's 5 minutes' from the sea, about 15 minutes' drive from St Davids and great value for money.
St Davids Activities
Coasteering It sounds mad - don a wetsuit, old trainers and helmet, scramble and swim around our rocky coastline. Leave the hard work (calculating tides etc) to the professionals - TYF, who pioneered coasteering and Preseli Venture - and just go and have a blast.
Riding The best way to see St Davids has to be on horseback. The St Davids Trekking Centre offers a range of rides according to abilities, including beach rides - a great way to make the most of our fabulous scenery. These guys really love their gypsy horses - and so do our passengers!
Surfing Whitesands is a beautiful beach with the bonus of lifeguard cover. Surf ranges from boogie-board-friendly ripples to board-crushing monsters so if you don't know the beach well please talk to someone who does. Whitesands Surf School do board / wetsuit hire and lessons.
Kayaking Both TYF and Preseli Venture offer guided kayaking tours for all ages and abilities. Pembrokeshire's coastline is stunning but its waters should never be underestimated. Go with the experts and sit back and enjoy the scenery (and paddle a bit!).
Jet boating Once you've exhausted yourselves with all of the above you're welcome to join us on a jet boat trip: enjoy the scenery, the wildlife, the jet manoeuvres and let the boat do the work for you on your adventure.
Spa If you need to rest from your outdoor adventures then the Ivybridge Spa offers a range of treatments to individuals and groups in a cosy and friendly environment.
