Saundersfoot Harbour
The Saundersfoot Railway and Harbour Company was formed in 1828 to build a harbour
(1829) ,transforming Saundersfoot from a small fishing village to a successful industrial
port exporting anthracite Coal
The Coal industry began to decline in the 1920's , with the last Coal Pit closing in 1940.
The Harbour now provides moorings for pleasure craft and the fishing boats.
A long sandy beach stretches to either side of Saundersfoot Harbour, which on a low tide
can be explored for miles.
