This magic place, the birthplace of Wales' patron saint, is officially recognised as Britain's smallest city and the location for Wales's most important religious monument.
The Cathedral nestling in the valley of the River Alun alongside the impressive ruins of the Bishops Palace is undoubtedly one of the loveliest settings in Wales. A wonderful ambience pervades the entire area which is quite unique. The city bustles during the summer months and visitors are spoilt for choice with places to stay, eat and drink. Galleries and interesting shops proliferate.
*Visit the magnificent beach at Whitesand Bay, famed for its surf.
*Walk the rugged splendour of St Davids Head with its burial chamber and fortification and the huge outcrop Carn Llidi; the rocks here are the oldest in Britain, at 6 million years old.
*Visit the Lifeboat Station at St Justinians or the picturesque harbour at Porthclais.
*Try a TYF adventure day surfing, coasteering or kayaking.
Thousand Islands Expeditions, Voyages of Discovery and Aquaphobia offer exhilarating and exciting trips around Ramsey Island in rigid inflatable boats. It's a great way to see the local wildlife at close quarters.
*Each year in early June the St Davids Cathedral Festival provides a feast of classical music by some of the world's top musicians.
Population 2,000
*St Davids Golf Course.
