Skomer Island
This rugged island of sheltered bays, exposed headlands and sheltered inlets is one of Pembrokeshire's top attractions, not least due to the vast number of bird species that call Skomer home. As well as puffins, guillemots, razorbills and short eared owls, the island is home to a large number of Manx Shearwaters. If you stay overnight, you'll witness one of the UK's most remarkable events as these birds return to their burrows under the cover of darkness. At the centre of the island you'll also find an education room and interpretation centre, as well as a cosy hostel if you do decide to spend the night.
