Little Haven
Little Haven is a village at the south east corner of St Bride's Bay in Pembrokeshire. Together with the larger coastal village of Broad Haven to the north, Little Haven falls within the Havens community for which the 2001 census recorded a population of 1,328.
Little Haven has been an agricultural, fishing and coal-mining area for some centuries, and a tourist destination since the early 19th century. Coal was loaded on to coasters from the beach, and a RNLI lifeboat was stationed at Little Haven from 1882 to 1921. With the decline of industry in the 20th century its primary focus has been development as a seaside resort.
There are many holiday lets to be found in the village along with three public houses. In response to the rise in visitors to the beaches and waters of the Havens, in 1967 the lifeboat station was reopened with an inshore lifeboat and the station name changed to Little and Broad Haven Lifeboat Station.
