Cardigan Lifeboat Station is operated purely by volunteers, approximately 30 in total. The station has a gift shop, and you'll also be able to go along and watch the launching of the lifeboats during the crew's exercise and they'll even answer a question or two for you! The first ever lifeboat station in the area was established below Penrhyn Castle in 1849, before re-opening at Poppit Sands in 1971. The current station opened in 1998 allowing two lifeboats to be stored.
Wednesday: 18:00 - 20:00
Sunday: 10:00 - 12:00
The Station may open outside of the listed times by prior arrangement only.
