Dale gives its name to the peninsula that shelters the entrance to Milford Haven. At Mill Bay, just inside the harbour entrance, Henry Tudor landed in 1485 on his way to gaining the English crown at Bosworth Field. A lighthouse has stood on St Ann's Head since 1713 and there are some spectacular cliff-path walks around the headland.

Dale village is attractively situated on the estuary, with a sand and shingle beach and some fine houses along the old quay wall. Once a busy sea-trading and fishing village, it is now a popular watersports centre, with yacht moorings and facilities for board sailing and launching pleasure craft. It can become congeted in summer but ther is an ample car park close to the beach.
