Milford Haven in Pembrokeshire, Wales sits on the wide estuary of the River Cleddau and around the dramatic Milford Haven Waterway, forming a deep natural harbour that has long shaped the town. It was developed as a planned port in the late 18th century and grew through fishing, shipbuilding and dock work, so Victorian terraces and dockside buildings sit alongside modern waterfront facilities.
Today the town is notable for its maritime and energy economy - major oil and LNG terminals and commercial docks operate alongside marinas and a modest tourist trade - while the estuary and nearby coastline, much of it within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, support rich birdlife and seals and attract walkers and wildlife enthusiasts. The local community reflects that mix of heavy industry, maritime heritage and coastal tourism, with continuing efforts at regeneration and environmental management.
