Strumble Head Lighthouse: A Shimmering Attraction That Will Take Your Breath Away

Enchanting and breathtaking, Strumble Head Lighthouse is undoubtedly one of the most incredible attractions in Pembrokeshire. Situated on the rugged Welsh coast, this magnificent structure has been guiding sailors to safety for over a hundred years. It stands proudly amidst stunning scenery that includes dramatic cliffs, golden beaches, and an endless expanse of ocean.

The tower itself is a sight to behold, rising majestically 55 meters above sea level with its crisp white facade that gleams in the sunlight, it measures at 17 meters tall and has a range of 22 nautical miles. It is painted white with a distinctive red band around its middle section that makes it easily recognizable from afar. The light within Strumble Head Lighthouse flashes every ten seconds and can be seen from as far away as Ireland in clear weather conditions.

The lighthouse was designed by Trinity House’s engineer James Walker and was first lit on December 1st, 1908. Today it serves as a beacon of hope for travelers from all over the world who seek adventure and inspiration in Wales’ natural wonders.

Visitors are welcome to explore the historic site for themselves, and there are guided tours available during certain times of the year.

Amazing!! What a beautiful place. The road to the lighthouse is narrow, just like many other roads in Wales. However, it is definitely worth it going! Enough place for parking. The views are extremely beautiful.

Lovely location but the roads are very narrow to get there. Plenty of free parking and really enjoyed watching the seals on the rocks below the lighthouse. You can follow the coastal path to see some spectacular views.

Wonderful views all along. Road leading to the lighthouse car park is slightly narrow. Although entry to the lighthouse is allowed only twice per year, the views from this spot are amazing. We got to spot plenty of seals really close and the trial path from the car park has amazing views.

Good free parking, no other facilities. Beautiful walks from here along the coast. Lighthouse cannot be visited, just seen from a distance. Very tranquil when we were there.

Free parking 24/7 puts you right on a coastal path to be explored both directions. Coastal shuttle bus stops there as well, makes it very convenient to get back to the car. Fabulous sunsets. Stunning coast line. No crowds....
