Llanrhian sits on the rugged north‑west coast of Pembrokeshire in Wales, close to the St Davids peninsula and set largely within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The parish includes a string of small settlements and harbours such as Porthgain, Trefin and Abereiddi, and is known for dramatic cliffs, secluded coves (including the flooded quarry known as the Blue Lagoon at Abereiddi) and rich seabird life on nearby islands like Skomer, making it popular with walkers and birdwatchers on the coastal path.
Historically the area was shaped by small‑scale fishing and quarrying - Porthgain still bears the industrial harbour and kiln remains - while today the local economy leans on agriculture, tourism and a modest arts scene with galleries and holiday lets. At the heart of the community is the medieval parish church of St Rhian and a characterful, close‑knit rural population that values local traditions alongside the visitor trade.
