Broad Haven sightings (1977)

The Broad Haven UFO sightings were a wave of reported UFO and humanoid encounters that occurred in 1977 in Pembrokeshire, Wales, notably beginning with schoolchildren at Broad Haven Primary School. A Ministry of Defence inquiry found no evidence of a landing and suspected a practical joker, and two local men later confessed to dressing up in silver suits for a prank, although the former pupils have maintained their story.

During this wave, 3 different people reported 3 sightings in the area on this site. 2 include video.
