An enclosed garden is a source claim, not an escape-proof guarantee. A source fetch is not a personal visit. Confirm current access, opening hours, fees and availability before travelling.
Seasonal and area restrictions
Porthselau Beach
This individually identified Pembrokeshire beach falls under the current official tourism statement welcoming dogs to all county beaches. This named beach is not in the current named summer exclusion list; nearby Whitesands is excluded in summer. The named visitor-page location, individual footpath access description and county identity have been checked; permitted parts and dates are described below. Keep dogs supervised and under control, clear waste and follow current signs and any temporary wildlife or access restrictions. Confirm any dog limits or charges with the relevant operator and check current lifeguard information if needed. Beach permission does not establish admission to nearby cafes or unlimited off-lead access. The original licensed marker remains an approximate whole-beach point, not an entrance or safe tide route; the visitor page’s separately published coordinates corroborate the same beach and are not substituted for it. Access is via the Coast Path from Whitesands. There is no beach parking or onshore facility provision. Check tides and your return route before visiting this rocky cove. Nearby Whitesands has a whole-beach dog exclusion from 1 May to 30 September; Porthselau permission does not remove that ban. Follow the coastal footpath and current dog signs rather than walking or wading across a restricted beach. No bathing-safety or step-free-access guarantee is provided.
