What to know

attractions in Fishguard

Fishguard (Abergwaun) is the north-Pembrokeshire harbour town — Lower Town and the square; Pembrokeshire taxi table; ferry actually sails from Goodwick next door.

Things to do in Fishguard

Lower Town (Cwm Abergwaun) is the original medieval harbour — painted by artists, used as a filming location, and the place for a harbour walk or kayak meet-up. Up in town, the Last Invasion story of 1797 (French landing at Carregwastad) lives on in the long tapestry at the Town Hall / library and at the Royal Oak on Market Square, where the peace treaty was signed.

Do not confuse Lower Town with the Goodwick ferry terminal. Pair a harbour morning with the Coast Path toward Newport (Pembs) — one of the most dramatic stretches of the 186-mile path.
