Gateholm Island Gateholm is a tidal island, i.e. cut off at high tide but not at low tide. However from this perspective it seems that it would be difficult to climb to its plateau (about 40m high) even when access from Marloes Sands is easy.

The Pembrokeshire coast south of Martin's Haven The flat-topped land in the middle distance is Gateholm Island (and this photo suggests that a few earlier photos in the square have been wrongly located, though the evidence is not strong enough to suggest a change). The more distant (and rather higher) land is the peninsula leading to St Anne's Head.
