30 years ago, West Wales became the centre of world news when the tanker, Sea Empress, struck rocks at the entrance of Milford Haven. While bad weather hampered the rescue, 72,000 tonnes of crude oil escaped.
This is the story of the disaster, and subsequent massive effort to clean Pembrokeshire’s beaches. There was also a Goodwick connection!

30 mlynedd yn ôl, daeth Gorllewin Cymru yn ganolbwynt newyddion y byd pan darodd y tancer, y Sea Empress, greigiau wrth fynedfa Aberdaugleddau. Er bod tywydd garw wedi rhwystro’r ymdrech i lanhau, dihangodd 72 mil tunnell o olew crai.
Dyma stori’r drychineb, a’r ymdrech enfawr ddilynol i lanhau traethau Sir Benfro. Roedd cysylltiad ag Wdig hefyd!
