Pembrokeshire. The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park was designated in 1952 and remains the only UK national park recognised primarily for its coastline. It boasts some of the most spectacular scenery and diverse wildlife in Britain. It stretches from the resorts of Saundersfoot and Tenby in the south to Cardigan in the north an area of 243 sq miles. The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path is a 180 mile walking trail. 

Lydstep is a small village some 5 miles south west of the seaside resort of Tenby. The arch is located on a secluded cove south of the village. It cannot be seen from the coastal path. It can be accessed at low tide with care. To view it from above requires a climb down a steep cliff but can be done with extreme care.
