Lying five miles west of Fishguard, Strumble Head is one of the top sites for sea-watching in the county.
Strumble Head is one of the top sites in the county and is renowned as the top sea-watching site in Wales. Well over 200 species of bird have been recorded here. The best sea watching conditions are when there has been a good south or south westerly blow for a few days followed by the wind turning to a west or north westerly direction. This firstly pushes seabirds into the Irish Sea and then brings the birds close inshore as they leave. Autumn passage usually starts towards the end of July, peaking in September / October and finishing mid November. Time, luck and dedication are required.
For extended sea-watching it is advisable to bring a deck chair to sit on. Specialities include Pardela-de-bico-preto , Bobo-grande , Pardela do Mediterrâneo and Pardela-preta , Moleiro-parasítico , Moleiro-grande , Moleiro-pomarino and Moleiro-de-cauda-comprida , Painho-de-cauda-forcada and Gaivota de Sabine. Rarities have included Little Shearwater, Soft plumaged Petrel, Painho de Wilson.
Follow signs from Goodwick to Strumble Head and park at the Head - SM896413 - see map - above the old look out building, from which sea watching is carried out.
The valleys to the east and west are good places for passerine migrants but be careful not to stray onto private farmland. A good walk is to the east, back along the coast towards Fishguard. This gives good views of many of the bays where seals pup in autumn. Resident species include: Fulmar, Gannet, Shag, Razorbill, Guillemot, Buzzard, Peregrine, Rock Pipit, Raven, Chough, Stonechat and Linnet.
