Skomer Island (Welsh: Ynys Sgomer) is a nature reserve and is just off the Pembrokeshire Coast at Martin's Haven. As well as an abundance of wildlife the island is rich in Iron Age hut remains. Signs of settlement are all over the island with round and rectangular hut remains, field systems and wall boundaries believed to date back to the first century BC. The island can be reached by taking the B4327 southwest from Haverfordwest branching off to Marloes towards Martin's Haven where boats leave during the summer months.
