Ownership of the National Park

Foreshore (beach fronts) on the Pembrokeshire Coast

The National Park Authority leases almost all the foreshore along the Pembrokeshire Coast from The Crown Estate (the owners). So if you wish to film on the foreshore please contact the National Park Authority to discuss permission.

There are several key locations which are not leased by the Authority, namely and ’s North, South and Castle beaches, all of which are managed by Pembrokeshire County Council. The foreshore along parts of the Castlemartin Army Range is another exception as it is on land owned by the Ministry of Defence.

Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail is 186-miles long, running from Amroth in the south to in the north.

It passes across beaches and through towns and villages. The Park Authority only owns small pockets of land along the Path. Different sections of the Path are owned by different organisations and individuals so please note it is not possible to receive blanket permission to film along the whole of the Coast Path.

If you would like to film in a particular location on the Coast Path and you are not sure about ownership, please contact us.
