The sheltered sailing harbor of Dale, at the entrance to Milford Haven, is surrounded by beaches with fine sand: Musselwick Sands, Martin's Haven, Marloes Sand and Westdale Bay. In 1485 Henry Tudor, pretender to the throne, landed in Dale and marched through Wales to defeat Richard III in the battle of Bosworth Field. He was subsequently crowned
as Henry VII.
Westdale Bay, Watwick Bay, Mill Bay and Castlebeach are quiet and uncrowded bathing resorts on a small peninsula near Dale. The tidal currents here make swimming dangerous.
