Watching Wildlife While Hiking Wales

Hooked on Walking’s Wales walking holidays will lead you through Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. You’ll have the opportunity to see porpoises, dolphins and small whales cresting through the surface of the ocean.

Birdwatching is also a popular pastime in Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The islands and sea cliffs in this part of the country host enormous populations of sea birds. You may also see colonies seals at the base of some of these cliffs. You’ll be glad you brought your binoculars with you on this trip.

You’ll also have the chance to enjoy extra outings and excursions while walking in Wales. And some of these excursions involve even more wildlife watching. For example, when you walk around St David’s Peninsula for views of the bird sanctuary on Ramsey Island, you can also continue on to the docks for an inflatable speed boat ride to actually visit the island. Your knowledgeable guide for this excursion will tell you all about the birds, seals and sea lions that make their home here.
