1 is graded easy. Grading here is about ascent, not distance — the Coast Path drops into every valley it meets and climbs straight back out.

Sorted by how far the start is from Angle. Every one has parking notes, an honest difficulty grade and a safety section on its own page.

West Angle Bay to Freshwater West

Round the exposed corner where the Haven meets the Atlantic, from a sheltered bay with a café to the wildest surf beach in Wales.

6 miles · 3–3½ hours · Moderate

Starts in the village

Sandy Haven to Milford Haven

The path changes character completely: an easy half-day along the north shore of the Milford Haven waterway, timed around the tide at Sandy Haven, ending among the marina and museums of the town.

6 miles · 2½–3 hours · Easy

Starts 2.5 miles from Angle

Freshwater West to Stack Rocks (the Castlemartin Range section)

The one stage of the Coast Path most walkers never do on the coast: the cliff route crosses a live firing range and the everyday alternative is inland.

7 miles · 3–3½ hours · Moderate

Starts 2.6 miles from Angle

Milford Haven to Pembroke

Up the waterway and across the Cleddau Bridge: Brunel's railway terminus at Neyland, the Royal Dockyard heritage of Pembroke Dock, and a finish beneath the castle where Henry VII was born.

12.5 miles · 5–6 hours · Moderate

Starts 2.7 miles from Angle

Dale to Sandy Haven

A gentle stage along the north shore of the Haven with two tidal stepping-stone crossings that will add four miles to your day if you get them wrong.

7 miles · 3½–4 hours · Moderate

Starts 4 miles from Angle

The Dale Peninsula and St Ann's Head

A full-day circuit of the peninsula that guards the mouth of the Milford Haven waterway, past a lighthouse, three forts and the beach where Henry Tudor landed.

8 miles · 4–5 hours · Moderate

Starts 4 miles from Angle

The Marloes Peninsula and Deer Park

Round the tip of the peninsula from one of Wales's best beaches to the boat slip for Skomer, with seals in the coves below.

6 miles · 3–4 hours · Moderate

Starts 6 miles from Angle

Distances are to the start of each walk, straight-line from the centre of Angle. Several of these cross grazed clifftop with an unfenced drop — dogs on leads, and if cattle come at you while you’re holding one, let go. In an emergency anywhere near the coast, dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
