Tenby is a seaside town and its charming character and laid back vibe make it a top place for a family vacation or romantic getaway. There are three excellent sandy beaches, covering around 2.5 miles of coastline that's family friendly and surprisingly uncrowded. There are also plenty of places to buy an ice-cream. Unlike other seaside resorts, Tenby is relatively quiet so you'll have no trouble finding a spot to build a sandcastle.
As well as its long history is a seaside holiday destination, Tenby also has a considerable fishing heritage. Mackerel fishermen still set out from the harbour daily and you can even join them by booking a trip with one of the fishing boat operators. Boat excursions head out to nearby Caldey Island, a holy island run by Cistercian monks, where you'll find a tranquil strip of sand that's even more peaceful than the mainland.
