Dale Fort Field Centre is one of the first field centres to be established in 1947 by the Field Studies Council, an independent educational charity which promotes "Environmental Understanding for All", and is one of the leading providers of environmental education in Britain today. The centre is set in the heart of the Pembrokshire Coastal National Park and projects into the entrance of Milford Haven. The off-shore islands, particularly Skomer, are internationally famed for their seabird colonies. It was inevitable that Dale Fort was at the forefront of resource information after the Sea Empress oil spill. The work of the Centre focuses on the fieldwork needs of biology and geography through coastal research and monitoring, and also on the requirements of all people interested in outdoor education. All courses for school children and students are well developed to meet the syllabus or National Curriculum aims and assessment objectives. Field Study Programmes for adults are run concurrently. People enjoy studying local environment through walking, painting, craft, geological study and scientific fieldworks.
