Tenby  (Dinbych-y-pysgod, meaning fortlet of the fish)  is probably the most famous seaside town in Wales. With 2.5 miles of sandy beaches and 13th Century medieval town walls it offers a fun day out . Browse the many local shops or visit the RNLI lifeboat station.

Mackerel fishing and trips to Caldey island can be taken from the harbour.

Some say Carmarthen is the oldest town in Wales. It also claims to be the place of Arthurian legend Merlin's birth place. 

Today Carmarthen is a bustling town with retail chains and many independant shops.

Carmarthen indoor market offers a wide range of local produce;  Carmarthen ham is a true favorite claimed to have been taken back to Italy by the Romans and called Parma ham.  There are lots of other small home produce stalls selling pies, pastries and of course Welsh cakes.

The National Botanic Garden of Wales  is a visitor centre and also a centre for botanical research and conservation. It has the worlds largest single span glass house in the world.
