Wonders of the Coast Path

Sean Fletcher starts his epic challenge, travelling the 870-mile long Wales Coast Path. This first leg of his journey takes Sean along the coast of North Wales and onto the island of Anglesey. Sean goes on a search to find Britain's rarest toad, turns his hand to making a Bronze Age axe head, and has a beach cookout using mussels and oysters caught fresh from the Menai Strait.

Sean Fletcher continues his journey around the Wales Coast Path as he travels around the wild Llyn Peninsula. Sean takes the helm of a 1930s sailing ship to navigate the notorious Menai Strait, hits the waves with adaptive-surfer Llywelyn Williams, who lost his leg in a car accident, and meets a lady who walked the entire coast path with her donkey.

Sean travels down beautiful Cardigan Bay, where he helps to monitor the local dolphin population, discovers a 4,000-year-old sunken forest on a beach, and takes part in a Celltic longboat rowing race.

Sean Fletcher's journey around the 870-mile-long Wales Coast Path reaches Pembrokeshire. He meets a family who have moved to the coast to live off-grid, and takes part in an archeological dig to unearth the secrets of St Patrick's chapel. Sean also joins members of Pembrokeshire Blind Society to find out how they use sound to experience the coast, and discovers baby seals at Castlemartin military firing range.

Sean Fletcher's walk around the Wales Coast path has reached Carmarthen Bay and the Gower Peninsula, with its peaceful estuaries, glorious sandy beaches and limestone cliffs. At Pendine Sands, Sean discovers the amazing story of Wales' land speed record-holder, and witnesses his original car roar up the beach once more. Plus, Sean attempts to beat the tide and reach the end of the epic Worms Head.

Sean Fletcher is on the final leg of his epic journey around the Wales Coast Path. South Wales may be the most densely populated section of the coast, but as Sean discovers, it has some of the most spectacular landscapes. He explores the mighty sand dunes at Merthyr Mawr on horseback, discovers how our sea cliffs breathe in and out with the pounding of waves and re-creates Marconi's first radio transmission over open water, from Lavernock Point to Flatholm island.
