When it comes to outdoor activity holidays with a difference, you can't go wrong with a trip to Pembrokeshire to indulge in a spot of coasteering.
The pursuit was actually created in Pembrokeshire in the 1980s and gained popularity over the ensuing years to become the pastime of choice for those who want to combine the chance to take in the beautiful coastline in this part of Wales with some adrenaline-pumping activities.
Coasteering involves a mixture of cliff jumping, swimming, rock climbing, scrambling and more besides, with a typical coasteering experience lasting half a day.
However, you can choose to fill an entire day with coasteering activities - or even a whole weekend - if you think you have what it takes to do so.
Luckily, coasteering does not need a large amount of physical ability, so if you feel you're too unfit to take part in the pursuit, think again.
As long as you choose a coasteering package from an experienced, registered provider you'll be perfectly fine, no matter what you get up to! Going coasteering is a pretty simple process - you'll be part of a group of people numbering between two and eight and you'll be given equipment such as a wetsuit, helmet and buoyancy aid before you set off.
Your guide will lead you to the best spots for coasteering activities and you'll be given the option of tackling each one if you feel you can do it - no one will force you to do something you don't want to do! As well as exercising your body, coasteering can be a feast for the eyes - you'll be able to see the spectacular Pembrokeshire coastline from high vantage points as well as get up close with some wonderful wildlife, including seals and birds.
Most people go coasteering in the summer to take advantage of the favourable weather, but if you want a bit more of a challenge while among the waves you can also head to Pembrokeshire in the autumn.
Popular coasteering spots include St Non's - which is located near St Davids - and Stackpole Quay, which can be found in south Pembrokeshire.
Elsewhere, the Pencaer peninsula is the favoured destination for those who want to go coasteering in a less crowded place.
There are many more coasteering locations around Pembrokeshire - where you go will likely depend on your provider.
It's possible to take a few snaps while you're coasteering - just make sure you take a waterproof camera and secure it so you don't lose it while you're jumping, scrambling and climbing! Other things to do in Pembrokeshire include sailing, surfing, horse riding, kayaking, diving, cycling, golfing, kite surfing and much more besides.
If you want to take things at a gentler pace, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path is ideal for both short and long walks.
While it is some 186 miles long, there are many different shorter trails you can take along its length, passing through a host of different villages and towns in the process.
