East Angle bay

East Angle bay

A little-visited bay of wide sand and mud flats. This is an important feeding area for waders and, consequently, is a perfect place for birdwatching.

Turn off the Angle road to Rhoscrowther. Take the next left along a narrow lane and continue directly across the next crossroads to the bay.

You can follow the road round to Fort Popton on the eastern edge of the bay. It’s one of the Napoleonic era forts built to protect the naval dockyards at Pembroke Dock.

The banks and ditches on the southern side of the bay were part of an oil refinery, long since dismantled.

If you’re planning to visit, check out the tide times to make sure you’ve plenty of beach to play on and that you don’t get cut off by the incoming tide!
