Discover the Diverse Wildlife of West Wales
West Wales, encompassing the picturesque regions of Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion, is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. From the charming town of Newport to the coastal gems of Cardigan, Aberporth, and New Quay, the area teems with rich biodiversity. Guests at Flambards Hotel are perfectly positioned to explore these natural wonders.
Newport: A Coastal Sanctuary
Nestled within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, Newport offers a blend of pristine beaches and rugged cliffs. The nearby Newport Cliffs are a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest, providing habitats for seabirds like choughs, peregrine falcons, and razorbills. The coastal waters are also frequented by Atlantic grey seals and, occasionally, bottlenose dolphins.
Cardigan and Aberporth: Marine Marvels
Cardigan Bay is renowned for its resident population of bottlenose dolphins, one of the largest in Europe. The Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre offers insights into these majestic creatures and organizes boat trips for an up-close experience. Aberporth’s beaches serve as excellent vantage points for dolphin spotting, especially during the warmer months.
New Quay: A Seaside Spectacle
New Quay is a hotspot for marine biodiversity. Regular boat tours provide opportunities to observe not only dolphins but also harbour porpoises and Atlantic grey seals. The surrounding cliffs and coastal paths are home to a variety of seabirds, including guillemots and kittiwakes.
