0:00:02 > 0:00:04This time on Tenby 24/7,
0:00:04 > 0:00:08the coastguards are called to a cliff-side emergency.
0:00:08 > 0:00:13Down there. I can just see him poking his head up, there.
0:00:13 > 0:00:18Brothers Jonathan and Matthew make some heavenly chocolate on Caldey Island.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21The monks actually made it, but if you go away and pray for an hour
0:00:21 > 0:00:23and you come back, the chocolate can be ruined.
0:00:23 > 0:00:29And it's all for charity as Dai-The-Boot tries to get the best price for sea bass.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33We'll start at £10. Give me £10, anyone? £20?
0:00:34 > 0:00:39This is seven days in the life of one of Wales' holiday hotspots.
0:00:39 > 0:00:44Seven days with the people who work here to make the holidays a treat.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48This is Tenby 24/7.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Nestled within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
0:00:56 > 0:00:58is the popular seaside resort of Tenby.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04The town's Welsh name is Dinbych-y-Pysgod,
0:01:04 > 0:01:07meaning "little fortress of the fishes".
0:01:11 > 0:01:14It's an early start for skipper Roger Miles
0:01:14 > 0:01:16and his 14-year-old apprentice, Liam Berridge.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Together, they run mackerel fishing trips for holidaymakers.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Over the side with the weight and the feathers,
0:01:27 > 0:01:30just be careful with the hooks on the feathers, they are very sharp,
0:01:30 > 0:01:33especially if you catch a fish and swing them on board, OK?
0:01:33 > 0:01:38Take a rod, spread around the boat, give yourselves plenty of room, and we'll be fine.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43The anticipation of waiting for the first fish.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Nervous few moments.
0:01:49 > 0:01:54We have the odd occasion where dolphins come into the bay and frighten the fish. They're gone.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57We have the odd trip then when we might not see a fish.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59Very disappointing for some people
0:01:59 > 0:02:02but you can't beat nature all the time.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06That's one of the hardest parts of the job.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Seeing disappointed people if they don't catch fish -
0:02:09 > 0:02:11the grandfather and the son, you know?
0:02:11 > 0:02:12There we are.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18It seems the mackerel aren't rising to the bait this morning.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22But something is, and crew member Liam has got it hooked.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- It's a gurnard.- That's a grey gurnard.- It's a grey gurnard.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Run your finger down its back that way.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Now go the other way.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38It's spiky, isn't it?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40Do you want to keep him?
0:02:40 > 0:02:44But it isn't gurnard, it's mackerel the punters have come to fish for.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46And it's worrying.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48I've given up.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51There's nothing there.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Yeah, it's gone quiet at the moment.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57They're going to make us work today - work to do today.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01Nah, we'll try a bit harder looking for them today, that's all.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- We'll have to go deep. - We may have to go deep.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Deep, deep.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14The sea is like a magnet to holidaymakers at this time of year.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20And Tenby's lifeboat station is kept very busy.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27The RNLI volunteer crew respond to those in distress...
0:03:27 > 0:03:2924/7.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33'This is Milford Haven Coastguard. Standby.'
0:03:33 > 0:03:36'No engine action at all
0:03:36 > 0:03:39'and my auxiliary is not functioning.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41'We're too close to the rocks.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44'I have three people on board in total.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48'I am too close to the rocks for comfort really. Over.'
0:03:48 > 0:03:50'Roger.'
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Speed is of the essence.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Coxswain Phil John and his crew must rescue the boat in distress
0:03:58 > 0:04:02in time to stop it colliding with the rocks.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13With the stricken craft finally secured,
0:04:13 > 0:04:16the lifeboat can tow it to safety.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21And coxswain Phil can return to base.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28We got one of our guys on the boat to help get his anchor up.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30His anchor... He couldn't get it up.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33So we managed to release the anchor
0:04:33 > 0:04:37and then we towed him in to where his trailer was waiting on the beach,
0:04:37 > 0:04:39so it was all good in the end.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44- A typical day in a Tenby lifeboat? - A typical day, yeah.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Where were you? On the beach?
0:04:51 > 0:04:56Just off the coast of Tenby is the holy island of Caldey,
0:04:56 > 0:04:58home to a monastery of Cistercian monks
0:04:58 > 0:05:01and a small population of island dwellers.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Caldey is only accessible by boat.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10And if you work there, like brothers Jonathan and Matthew Miller,
0:05:10 > 0:05:13you may want a fast commute.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Half a century ago, the monks started making chocolate on the island
0:05:20 > 0:05:24and today the factory is run by Matthew's family.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28No matter how many times you do this, I'm always surprised by how much chocolate you get out.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31100 kilograms, this machine can hold.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33That's more chocolate than I weigh. It's crazy.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Before my dad, the monks made it,
0:05:37 > 0:05:40but the chocolate business got bigger,
0:05:40 > 0:05:44visitors wanted more and more and monks pray seven times a day.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48So, chocolate, you need to be on top of all the time,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51and if you go away and you pray for an hour and you come back,
0:05:51 > 0:05:57the chocolate can be ruined, so they employed my dad in the '80s and he's been making it since.
0:05:57 > 0:06:02And now me and my brother come back here and help him out whenever we can
0:06:02 > 0:06:04when we're not at university.
0:06:04 > 0:06:09We get as much summertime cash as we can just to pay for the winter.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12On Caldey, they always say winters are long
0:06:12 > 0:06:16so we make hay when the sun shines.
0:06:16 > 0:06:20And, yeah, it is good. What do we need next, Jon?
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Are we going to put some more maple nuts out?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25This is probably going out the front now.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- I would say...- Chocolate orange? - ..chocolate nut and raisin next.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Nut raisin.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35There we go. Let's hope we sell all this today.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Happy holidaymakers are important.
0:06:42 > 0:06:47Tenby relies on the tourists coming back year on year.
0:06:50 > 0:06:5490-year-old Jeff fell in love with the resort over 50 years ago
0:06:54 > 0:06:58and has been returning with his family ever since.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02I love everything about Tenby, especially these small shops.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05I love 'em, don't you?
0:07:05 > 0:07:10Yeah. It doesn't change, does it? It's always the same.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- I think that's the beauty of it. - Exactly.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15It's lovely, Tenby.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20And every year, the family from Lincoln visit their favourite haunts.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23This is the best teashop in Tenby.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27Oh, that's who it is! Well, how are you all?
0:07:27 > 0:07:28Very good.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Tea for two?- Tea for two, please.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Oh, lovely tea, this.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Thank you.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Oh, nice. That's nice.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39It's a long way to come down
0:07:39 > 0:07:43but it's definitely worth it, isn't it?
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Yeah.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48And out at night, when all the shops are lit up at night,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50and you can go shopping at night.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53- And have a beer at night. - Yes, a beer at night.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55- Real ale. - Not me. I don't drink.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57And paddling.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00And collecting seashells, which we've got hundreds at home.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Out at sea on their second trip of the day
0:08:10 > 0:08:13are mackerel skipper Roger and his shipmate Liam,
0:08:13 > 0:08:17both hoping their fishing fortunes are about to change.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19I've had a phone call from a local skipper
0:08:19 > 0:08:22and there are a lot of birds feeding just over the way.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25He said he put his rod out for a few fish,
0:08:25 > 0:08:29and he was bringing them in six at a time. He's got a box full.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32The phone call was, "Look out, they're on their way."
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Got one!
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Hey, good boy. I'm glad you came!
0:08:43 > 0:08:49Once you start, usually, the rest comes with it then.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Yeah, good. Nice, nice.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54There you go. Well done.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57What a difference in an hour, isn't it?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Put it down. Put it down.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Good boy.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Everyone can do it - people of all ages.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07As soon as you're big enough to hold a rod, you can do it.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09It's that simple.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15To some people it's a bit of a ritual. They come back every year.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17We see the same faces every year.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20It's part of their holiday because they enjoy doing it.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22The little kids are fascinated by the fish.
0:09:22 > 0:09:27They'll drop their rod and just stand by the box. "Wow! What's that?"
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- Are you going to be eating that tonight for your tea?- Probably not.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- Why not?- I don't like fish.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35It's society at the moment.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38They'll say, "Yes, I'll eat fish fingers", but that's it.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Hopefully, when they come fishing, they can take home their catch,
0:09:42 > 0:09:46cook it and eat it as well. That's what we want kids to do.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49The more fish they eat, the better it is for everybody, and us.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Do you like it when the catch is good?
0:09:52 > 0:09:55When the catch is good, yes, it's satisfying.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57And everybody else is satisfied.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00You've done the job you set out to do
0:10:00 > 0:10:03when everybody has caught a fish and it is great.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06When you achieve that in the first ten minutes of a trip,
0:10:06 > 0:10:08you're on a winner.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13There's no way they're coming home.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17We're in a hotel room. We've got nowhere to put them.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24Down the harbour,
0:10:24 > 0:10:27the inshore lifeboat is being launched for a rescue.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32The RNLI has to respond to every emergency call.
0:10:32 > 0:10:37Coxswain Phil John has to mobilise a crew as fast as possible.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41It's gone to Monkstone Point which is two miles north of here
0:10:41 > 0:10:44for two young kids out in a dinghy.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48A kayaker passed and the kayaker was a bit concerned because the wind's picked up
0:10:48 > 0:10:51and they're a bit far out.
0:10:51 > 0:10:52The kayaker raised the alarm
0:10:52 > 0:10:58so the coastguard are going just to make sure they're OK, basically.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- 'Two people on board, is it?' - 'Affirmative.'
0:11:01 > 0:11:04'Did you copy the last transmission?'
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- Where have you come from?- Pardon?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- Where have you come from? - Saundersfoot.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15- Have you been around Monkstone Point. - Eh?- Have you been around the point? - Yeah.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- Was there only two of you in the dinghy?- Yeah.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- There was no-one else involved? - No.- OK, no worries.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24Somebody called the coastguard to say somebody was in difficulty.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- No, we were up on the rock. - You climbed over the point, was it?
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- That's brilliant.- We were OK.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- There was no-one else involved?- No. - Excellent.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- What's the easiest way around to Saundersfoot?- Come with us.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- You sure?- No worries.- Thank you. - Or you'll end up in more trouble.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41You're a star.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46This time, these teenage would-be adventurers were found OK
0:11:46 > 0:11:49and hitch a lift home in style.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Last year, Tenby lifeboat crews launched 81 times
0:11:57 > 0:11:59and rescued 61 people.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Time for volunteer Robert James to report back.
0:12:02 > 0:12:07They said it wasn't too bad when they started but it got a bit fruity.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11They wanted to go around the end but they wouldn't have done it.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Well, they would have, but they would have been back down here.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17- Nicely done.- Good call.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Boats from Tenby are a lifeline for the residents on Caldey Island.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37They bring not only essential supplies,
0:12:37 > 0:12:40but also pilgrims and thousands of tourists.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46The chocolate factory is an island attraction.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Brothers Jonathan and Matthew keep the monks' original recipe alive.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54It's a Belgian recipe. That's about all I know.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56He won't tell me much more.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00The recipe has been the same since the monks started making it here.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02I'm not sure how many people know that.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05I'm sure if I knew it, they wouldn't let me leave the island!
0:13:06 > 0:13:10On a good day we can make up to 2,000 bars.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13As they're all hand wrapped, that will be a long day.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15So, erm...
0:13:15 > 0:13:18But it all depends. In the winter when you're making chocolate,
0:13:18 > 0:13:22if you can't get the materials over here, you'll make nothing,
0:13:22 > 0:13:26so it's, erm...so different every single day.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Summer is definitely the most intense time of year.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34You can't really survive on Caldey without the support of the community
0:13:34 > 0:13:36and it is quite a tight community.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40There's only 50 islanders so everyone knows everyone
0:13:40 > 0:13:43and even though some of the people have changed,
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Caldey still feels like Caldey,
0:13:45 > 0:13:48it hasn't really changed in the way that it feels here.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Hidden away in the town centre is the old market hall.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06WHISTLING
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Home to Dai-The-Boot, who has been repairing the shoes
0:14:11 > 0:14:15of locals and tourists in Tenby all of his working life.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Here you go, my love.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21All right? I remade the toes for you and the heels.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- It's the right ones, isn't it? - Yes, it's the right shoes.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27I don't want to go back to Tenerife to get another pair yet.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Dai never forgets a face... or a shoe.
0:14:30 > 0:14:36A holidaymaker came in once and the market had closed before they went home
0:14:36 > 0:14:38and they couldn't pick the shoes up.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42They came in two years later and I... "They're all ready."
0:14:42 > 0:14:44They were. Honestly.
0:14:46 > 0:14:51One of the highlights of the summer for Dai is the Tenby sea bass fishing competition,
0:14:51 > 0:14:54of which he has become the reluctant auctioneer.
0:14:54 > 0:15:01What happened, I may have had three pints instead of two.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06And we were there just, it just... for a joke, sort of thing,
0:15:06 > 0:15:10and it, you know... amassed from there, sort of thing.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12It was unbelievable.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Then somebody said, "We'll have to have another one next year."
0:15:15 > 0:15:20And it's gone, it's gone bigger and bigger every year, it really has.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28It's the early bird that catches the sea bass
0:15:28 > 0:15:30and Dai is running late for his shipmates.
0:15:30 > 0:15:34Come on! The royal wedding was yesterday!
0:15:34 > 0:15:36LAUGHTER
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Where have you been, then? 9:30am we were going.
0:15:48 > 0:15:5290-year-old Jeff and his family are also taking to the sea.
0:15:52 > 0:15:53Thanks.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Yeah, lovely. Thanks.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00It's time for their annual pilgrimage to Caldey Island.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01It's lovely scenery.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05You know, when you look back now.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- As nice as Skeg.- Oh, gosh, yes.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15When you come through here and you just see that monastery,
0:16:15 > 0:16:18you could be in Italy or Venice or somewhere,
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- it's so beautiful. - It is beautiful.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24It could be in a film set, couldn't it?
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Yes, it certainly looks Italian, doesn't it?
0:16:26 > 0:16:29It's so beautiful.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33You seem to be in another world.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38And the other thing is the impressive monastery.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42It's, you know, uplifting, I think.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44But, erm...
0:16:45 > 0:16:49..the girls like the walk round to see the lighthouse,
0:16:49 > 0:16:54but at my age you just want to sit down and enjoy it.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56All the peacefulness,
0:16:56 > 0:16:59that's what I like about it.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04It's not a holiday without visiting Caldey Island.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06I don't think, anyway.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11And it's an opportunity for Jeff's daughter Michelle to indulge her sweet tooth.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15You wouldn't think they make Caldey chocolate here, would you?
0:17:17 > 0:17:21- Are you ever tempted just to put your mouth under like that? - Not really.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25I think I would be. Or stick a straw in or something.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Just under 100 grams.- That's fine.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30And an extra dark chocolate, please.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34- That's it.- And this is part of your tradition, is it?- It is, certainly.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37We always come here and get some chocolate and fudge.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41You can get it in the shop but it's nice to get it on the island where it's actually made.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Jonathan and Matthew are only helping out for the summer
0:17:46 > 0:17:49and their future plans are not in chocolate heaven.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52I'm training to be a dentist, and my brother...
0:17:52 > 0:17:56- what are you doing, Jon? - I'm studying medicine at the moment.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00Erm, at the moment, hopefully, orthopaedic surgery, but we'll see where that goes.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Ironic that you work in a chocolate factory
0:18:03 > 0:18:05and you're training to be a dentist.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10Well, I always say it's to fix my dad...the things he's caused,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13the decay he's caused.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17I'll go and fix his wrongs, but he doesn't enjoy me saying that.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22- So chocolate orange? - Let's be honest, he's just happy it'll keep him in business longer.
0:18:22 > 0:18:28Well, I think we'll have a chocolate factory and a dental surgery opposite each other.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30That's the plan.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38For the last nine years, a gathering of close-knit Tenby locals
0:18:38 > 0:18:41have taken to the water to fish for sea bass.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48A dogfish. Common...whatever it's called.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- Lesser spotted... - Lesser spotted, there we are.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55No prizes for those.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59A little gurnard. This is going to go back. It's not quite big enough.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04Dai and his shipmates are catching everything but sea bass today.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- Rock fish.- Good eating, that.- Yeah.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10It's realistic. It looks like a real rock.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13And they go back really well.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17This competition is to commemorate the memory of a good friend
0:19:17 > 0:19:20and raise money for a cancer charity.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24The idea, sort of, bloomed in the pub, like.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27The boys all got together and we...
0:19:27 > 0:19:32we'd all went out fishing, after the year that Terry died
0:19:32 > 0:19:37and went back to the pub and started auctioning the fish,
0:19:37 > 0:19:40I think, for a bit of fun, but it just excelled from there.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42And...
0:19:42 > 0:19:45fair play, we've done well ever since.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50People have donated different things for auctioning.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Really lovely.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57Andy, what was last year's total?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- Around £6,000, something like that. - Yeah, six.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05If they're going to make any money at auction this year,
0:20:05 > 0:20:08someone's going to have to catch some sea bass.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10I let the other boys catch the bass.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14It's not fair to keep catching all the bass.
0:20:20 > 0:20:25And the biggest catch of the day ends up being a small shark.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Put him back.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39'Coastguard rescue.'
0:20:39 > 0:20:44'I wonder if you can help. I noticed a couple of young kids on the rocks.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48'The tide's coming in. They've got a little dog with them
0:20:48 > 0:20:52'and there's nowhere for them to go because the tide is very much all the way in.'
0:20:52 > 0:20:54SIREN BLARES
0:20:54 > 0:20:58The coastguards have been called urgently to the Esplanade cliffs.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02There they are. You can see him poking his head up there.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10The emergency also needs the assistance of the inshore lifeboat.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13'Milford Haven Coastguard, Milford Haven Coastguard.
0:21:13 > 0:21:19'We have left and are now proceeding to where we believe there are people cut off.'
0:21:21 > 0:21:25Look back and see if you can spot them. They should be about here.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Mike Day, Tenby Coastguard Station Officer,
0:21:47 > 0:21:51is in charge of organising this team for the clifftop rescue.
0:21:54 > 0:22:00I'm down here with the two children and their father and the dog and they are all safe and well.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03So they can exit without any danger? Over.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06Yes. Affirmative. They are in no danger at all.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10They are standing with their father fishing quite happily on the Esplanade steps.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13It looks like a false alarm with good intent, probably.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17But there's two kids and a dad and a dog there.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Somebody has reported them as cut off or trapped on the rocks.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24So, job done, I think. I hope.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27It's nice to know that people are looking out for you.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31- I didn't think there was a problem. - We'd always rather be called than not.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Job done for volunteer coastguard, Sam Radion.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38With a lot of tourists about, people see people on the rocks,
0:22:38 > 0:22:41they don't know how far the tide comes in.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43These people are local and they know the water.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Unfortunately, with tourists about, they tend to panic a bit quickly.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51But, as you can see, they are safe and well so a happy ending for everybody.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05On Caldey, holidaymaker Jeff is taking some reflective time
0:23:05 > 0:23:09to remember the purpose of today's visit to the holy island.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13I lost my sister on Thursday
0:23:13 > 0:23:19so I definitely want to go in and say a few prayers for my sister.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25I'm just going to put Auntie Lou's near Our Lady
0:23:25 > 0:23:27because she loved Our Lady, didn't she?
0:23:35 > 0:23:40No doubt my sister will be looking down and laughing her socks off.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43She was a big, big Catholic.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47It's making me think about it now.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Good old Lou.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04Goodbye to Caldey, then, until next year.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Bye, Caldey.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12The Caldey boats ferry thousands of visitors a year,
0:24:12 > 0:24:16helping make holiday memories that last a lifetime.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22I think you come to Tenby and you take a little bit of it back with you in your heart
0:24:22 > 0:24:25and then you come again.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Lovely.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30You sound like a bloomin' advert!
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Yeah, well...
0:24:39 > 0:24:43It's the last mackerel trip of the day for Roger and Liam
0:24:43 > 0:24:45and they're still reeling them in.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48That's a meal on its own, that one, isn't it?
0:24:51 > 0:24:54This is a summer job for 14-year-old Liam
0:24:54 > 0:24:57and seaman's etiquette has been a bit of a steep learning curve.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02I'll tell you a story about Liam's wellies.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06He turned up one morning in front of everybody with bright, white wellies.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10I didn't know that white wellies were butchers' wellies
0:25:10 > 0:25:15and everyone took the mick out of me so I sprayed them yellow.
0:25:15 > 0:25:16LAUGHTER
0:25:16 > 0:25:19They were better. They were perfect.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22But they've seen some action and they have faded a bit.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26The paint's coming off. The paint's coming off.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Never mind, if he does well this season,
0:25:28 > 0:25:33we might, erm... he might earn his stripes.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40And a good season with holidaymakers is what Roger is hoping for.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43We've got to try and make as much money as we can this summer
0:25:43 > 0:25:46to last us through the winter.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48Just to pay the bills, basically.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52Struggle by, pay the bills and do it all again next year.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54But we're so dependent on the weather as well -
0:25:54 > 0:25:59the weather and tourists are the main factors in living in a coastal town, really.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05That's right. It's enormous.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24The sea bass fishermen are back on dry land.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26We have got two lovely bass, folks.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30We'd like to start off at a fiver. Show me your hand for five.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33And Dai has got a lot of fish to sell.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36Of course, none of it caught by his team's boat.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39£16. We've got £16 with the hoody. £16 with the hoody.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42£20. Plenty of bass.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44£23.
0:26:44 > 0:26:49£25, going once, £25, going twice,
0:26:49 > 0:26:53£25, down! Thank you very much, Dave.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Now this one has been donated by Bob Dowson
0:26:56 > 0:27:01but these people have donated the fish for a very good cause.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05Ladies and gentlemen, this is our youngest competitor.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:27:09 > 0:27:1020 quid.
0:27:10 > 0:27:1320 quid down the front. 20 quid? All for a good cause.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16You know, they all join in. It's wonderful.
0:27:16 > 0:27:20Tenby people are generous. Really generous.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Really good. You can't beat Tenby.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28And Dai is a Tenby man of many talents.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31Join in with me if you know this one, right?
0:27:31 > 0:27:37# I've been a wild rover for many a year
0:27:37 > 0:27:42# I spent all my money on whiskey and beer
0:27:42 > 0:27:44# And... #
0:27:44 > 0:27:46This year, the fishermen raised over £10,000
0:27:46 > 0:27:48in memory of their friend Terry.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50# ..the wild rover no more
0:27:50 > 0:27:54# And it's no, nay, never
0:27:54 > 0:27:59# Right up, your kilt! No, nay, never, no more
0:27:59 > 0:28:02# Will I play that wild rover
0:28:02 > 0:28:07# No never, no more. #
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Thanks, folks.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11Thank you for everything.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Next time on Tenby 24/7,
0:28:15 > 0:28:20pest-controller Lee Richards tries to keep the resort rat free.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24It'll be a rodent paradise when everybody has gone home for dinner.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28The Feccis dish up some fish and chips for the holidaymakers.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31Right, the curry sauce is very hot. It will burn and it will stain.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33Would you like salt and vinegar?
0:28:33 > 0:28:37And have vandals ruined the town's chances to win
0:28:37 > 0:28:39the Britain in Bloom competition?
0:28:39 > 0:28:43I suppose we've just got to hope that the judge takes things into consideration.
