The Pembrokeshire Coast Path runs through the village of Little Haven. Since May 2012 this route has also formed a part of the Wales Coast Path. At low tide it is possible to walk north along the sandy shore from Little Haven via a larger bay known as the Settlands, past a second point ('The Rain') to the wider bay at Broad Haven. There is an Anglican church in Little Haven. 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. The Swan Inn 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.
