Wales at its magnificent best - with Jamie Owen. Welsh broadcaster Jamie Owen shares his lifelong passion for the sea on two breathtaking journeys around the stunning coast of Wales. Aboard a magnificently restored 150 year-old pilot cutter, Jamie visits the many fascinating islands that lie just off land and discovers some of Wales’ most charming hidden harbours, along a coastline that has been described as one of the most beautiful in the world. Magic Islands:
On his first voyage aboard the pilot cutter ‘Mascotte’ Jamie Owen heads for six of the islands that lie just off the Welsh coast.
