New nature and seashore watches thought up by a National Park ranger are proving extremely popular among holidaymakers at two of Pembrokeshire's major holiday parks. Kiri Howell, the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority's Bourne Leisure seasonal site ranger, is getting big turnouts for her Seashore Afternoon Activity and Night Time Nature Activity at Kiln Park Holiday Park, Tenby, and similar events at Lydstep Haven Holiday Village. "It's been an amazing response at times," said Kiri. "We have had over 60 people out for walks at dusk which include watching out for and listening in to bats and seeking out glow worms. And the seashore walks are also well supported." For several years, the National Park Authority and Bourne Leisure, which runs Kiln Park, Lydstep Haven and Penally Court, have worked together to fund the post of ranger for these sites and Kiri took up the position this season. She lives nearby at Penally and has a first class honours degree in Environmental Sustainability. Currently she is completing a post-graduate course in Environmental Education. "This post is perfect for me," she said. "I have lived and worked in Pembrokeshire all my life and have a special interest in coastal conservation. My work and my studies have allowed me to develop my knowledge of the National Park and I enjoy sharing this with visitors through activities and events, both on and off the sites." Kiri runs a weekly programme of events and activities which include rockpool rambles, coastal walks, bat walks and a 'Junior Ranger's Club'. At Lydstep, the newly introduced Cavern Walk - which can only be offered at low tide - is also very popular. "The caverns provide a natural playground for exploring, climbing, paddling and swimming," added Kiri. There is incredible geology and wonderful rockpools." Further information on the activities can be obtained from the site offices at Kiln Park, Lydstep Haven and Penally Court.
