RNLI St Davids at St Justinian

RNLI St Davids (based in St Justinian, near St Davids, Pembrokeshire, Wales) opened in 1869.
At present there are three stations the original station rebuilt in the early 1900s, the current station and the new larger station construction of which commenced in summer 2014 with official opening taking place in March 2017. The new station accommodates a Tamar Class boat RNLB NORA WORTLEY.

The new station was constructed by BAM Nuttall at a cost of £9.5m. It is linked to the cliff top by both steps and a single car funicular railway which unlike that provided for the original stations is designed to carry passengers.

Part of the slipway of the original station is used as a landing point for the Ramsey Island ferries.

The only access to the current and original stations is via a steep flight or steps, however, a small cable operated funicular railway is available to raise and lower equipment.
