Blue Lagoon

Abermawr is a small cove in Pembrokeshire, which is popular with both tourists and residents alike. The shingle beach is backed with marsh and woodlands which all make up Abermawr Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), and is also part of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The beach is popular with bathers and also surfers. Abermawr is owned by the National Trust and is accessed by a narrow single track, with only a few parking spaces along the road. Bordered by beaches and craggy rocks, the lagoon is world-class for watersports. The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series visited the Blue Lagoon in 2012 – the first time the event had ever been held in the UK. We were delighted to host the event again in 2013 and 2016. It’s also a very popular spot for coasteering and kayaking, and you’re welcome to take the plunge as part of an organised activity group. Be careful, the water is deep and cold.
