Pembrokeshire Wildlife Boat Trips from St Justinian, the lifeboat station, St Davids.
The boat will be brought alongside a slipway; you do not need to wade out to the boat.
Please note: there are over 50 concrete steps (with a handrail) to walk down to the slip at St Justinian. Please see our St Justinian photo gallery for detailed images of the steps, slipways and the lifeboat station.
If you have any difficulty walking please let us know so that we can discuss whether or not St Justinian is an option for you.
Whitesands Beach Jet Boat Wildlife Trips, St Davids (School Summer Holidays)
At Whitesands beach we bring the boat into shallow water (approximately knee depth); you will need to wade out to board. We are the only boat company to operate beach trips from Whitesands.
Car park, toilet and shop facilities are next to the beach, which is part of the Pembrokeshire coast path.
If you have difficulty walking there are all terrain wheelchairs at Whitesands which can go across the beach and into shallow water. We will do everything we can to assist you to board but we are unable to physically lift passengers. If you have significant mobility issues Whitesands is the most accessible boarding point but we need to plan carefully. Please call us so that we can discuss the best tidal and weather conditions to suit your needs.
The Celtic Coaster bus (no.403) runs to both Whitesands and St Justinian from St Davids from Easter to September and can accommodate 2 wheelchairs.
Passengers are asked to be at the departure point ready to sign in at least 15 minutes before their trip in low season and 30 minutes before in high season (summer school holidays).
Do please allow yourselves lots of time to get to the departure point; holiday periods can be really busy. We regret that we cannot take responsibility for passengers being late: out of respect for other passengers we cannot wait longer than 15 minutes.
