It’s a pleasure to introduce you to the vital work of the National Coastwatch Institution (NCI) at Wooltack Point, a dedicated volunteer-led station safeguarding lives along our coastline.
Perched on the dramatic cliffs overlooking the entrance to Milford Haven Waterway and the treacherous waters around Skomer and Skokholm islands, NCI Wooltack Point plays a crucial role in maritime safety. Our trained volunteers maintain a watchful eye on the sea, monitoring vessels, weather conditions, and coastal activities, ready to assist the emergency services when needed.
In this talk, we’ll explore the history of NCI, the daily operations at Wooltack Point, and the importance of coastal surveillance in ensuring safety for mariners, fishermen, and recreational water users. We’ll also discuss how community involvement supports this life-saving work. Let’s dive into the world of coastal vigilance!
