It is approximately 7 miles (11 km) from Pembroke by road, and 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Lamphey. Freshwater East is the site of a Green Coast Award Beach.[1]

There are few services in Freshwater East apart from a pub, a twice-daily bus service to Pembroke and the surrounding villages, and Lamphey railway station on the Pembroke Dock branch of the West Wales Line operated by Arriva Trains Wales. Trains stop on request.[2][3]

In the valley there is a holiday park called Trewent Park. The beach hosts The Big Draw - art drawn on the beach along with natural items.
