Milford Waterfront, a vibrant holiday destination in Pembrokeshire, is excited to welcome a variety of new businesses for visitors to enjoy this summer season.
From skincare companies, water sports, gelato and surf wear businesses, Milford Waterfront’s offering to visitors has expanded even further over the last few months.
Akamuti has been producing natural, organic and ethical skincare products for 19 years, and has recently expanded from its production workshop at Milford Waterfront, to its first shop at Milford Waterfront this year. With products handcrafted in their workshop, which is located just opposite, Akamuti uses a range of high quality oils, butters, healing herbs and botanicals to create facial oils, natural soaps, face masks, luxurious butters and moisturisers.
Opening the same weekend as its next door neighbour, Akamuti, Salt on the Strand has expanded to Milford Waterfront from its shop in Saundersfoot with a new Milford Haven shop, offering a range of branded surf wear and accessories, as well as wetsuits and bodyboards.
New to Milford Waterfront this month, Milford Beach Activity Centre has opened to a popular start, offering locals and visitors the chance to get out on the water, off the Hot Water Slip, just in front of Sugar Loaf. With a choice of stand up paddleboards, and single and double kayaks, everyone has the chance to get out and explore the waterway from Milford Beach.
Velluto Gelato opened this season, next door to sister business, Impasto Pizza Bar. Specialising in homemade gelato, they serve a range of flavours made on site in small batches ensuring freshness and quality, allowing them to offer a versatile menu with a combination of traditional and creative flavours.
Lucy Wonnacott, Marketing Manager for Milford Waterfront commented: “Over the last few years, we have seen so many new businesses open up here at Milford Waterfront, and it is so exciting to see the same thing again this year. We are absolutely thrilled to be welcoming so many great businesses. And I am sure everyone will join me in extra special excitement for the Milford Beach Activity Centre’s opening! It is so great seeing activity on the Waterway to be able to get out on the water, it is a great addition which celebrates Milford Haven’s sense of place and adds to our already buzzing atmosphere!”

Notes to Editors
Milford Waterfront
Milford Waterfront is a multi-million pound regeneration project being led by the Port of Milford Haven. It aims to continue to develop the area which is home to Milford Marina and Milford Fish Docks into a vibrant destination, adding to the existing mix of leisure, retail and dining businesses and boosting the economy by providing long term, sustainable jobs.
A number of flagship projects have already been completed at the site including the opening of four custom-built Floatel Cabins, which offer a restful retreat for visitors looking for a unique glamping experience. And in April 2022 the new 100 bedroom Tŷ Hotel operated by the Celtic Collection opened and we hope more visitors will stay and experience all of the new and existing attractions here at Pembrokeshire’s hidden gem.
The development will also celebrate the arts, culture and heritage of the area, working in partnership with key stakeholders. The Port already hosts a busy calendar of events at Milford Waterfront working with partners including Milford Haven Round Table to deliver events including Milford Haven Carnival, Milford Haven Beer Festival and Milford Haven Fireworks Display, as well as other food and cultural festivals. More information can be found on the What’s On page.
