North Beach seen from the cliff top in The Norton which is the continuation of High Street. There are a number of nice garden areas along the sea front in both beaches.

The view from North beach, which is very large at low tide, looking towards the town. The large lump of rock is the same as in the picture above.

South Beach seen from the cliff top in the Esplanade. Further along the beach on the right is a large area of sand dunes and beyond that the gap on the horizon is between the mainland on the right and Caldey Island on the left.
Caldey Island can be reached by boat via trips run from Tenby.

South Beach and St. Catherine's Island. The island is a small rocky outcrop which can be reached on foot at low tide only and includes a Naponleonic Fort. The island and the fort are open to the public for a small charge.

A Cave on South Beach accessible only at low tide. The rocks in Tenby are very steeply bedded, almost vertical, as you can see and are of Carboniferous age (up to 323 million years old). The waves crashing against the cliffs will soon find the weak points, joints between the layers, and start to break up the rock and eventually forming a cave.

Inside a cave on South Beach. This particular cave goes in for a moderate distance and has, mostly, a sandy floor. You can see that the walls are quite polished by the action of the sea on the rock.
