Abereiddy

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path passes the beach and the walk from Abereiddy to Porthgain is one of the best stretches along the entire coast path.

Abereiddy is on the route of the Strumble Shuttle. The coastal bus service hugs the coast from Strumble Head near Fishguard to St Davids and is a great way to enjoy the National Park without a car.

Abereiddy was involved with slate with a small quarry just north of the beach. Initially, the slate was exported across Abereiddy beach, but later through a tramway to the harbour at Porthgain a couple of miles to the north. Today the quarry is flooded and known better as The Blue Lagoon

The Blue Lagoon is 25m deep but despite the name, the water is always a distinct greenish hue, owing to the mineral content within the quarry.
