The southern ward of Tenby covers the town’s historic harbour and seafront area on the rugged coast of Pembrokeshire in Wales, taking in South Beach, the approach to St Catherine's Island and views across to Caldey Island. The shoreline here is part of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, and the area is notable for colourful Georgian houses, fragments of medieval town walls and a compact, picturesque harbourfront.

Locally the ward is a mix of long‑term residents and holiday accommodation, so the economy leans heavily on tourism, hospitality and maritime services with a pronounced summer season. It also retains a strong community feel, with independent shops, cafés and heritage attractions balancing the seasonal bustle, and it is represented at town and county council level for local services and planning matters.
