Dogs are not allowed between May and September up until where Castle Beach becomes South Beach.

Nestled beneath the dramatic ruins of Tenby Castle, this small, intimate cove offers a more secluded alternative to the town's larger beaches. The beach is accessible via steps from the castle grounds and provides spectacular views of Caldey Island across the water. The combination of golden sand, clear waters, and the imposing medieval fortress creates an atmospheric setting that captures the essence of Pembrokeshire's rich history, making it a favorite spot for photographers and those seeking a quieter beach experience.

When hunger strikes, there are several options for food and drink nearby.

The Dennis Cafe, located just a short walk from the beach, is a popular spot for breakfast, lunch, and snacks. The menu includes traditional Welsh breakfasts, homemade cakes, and freshly brewed coffee.
