Good one. I'd not heard of Caldey Island, sounds interesting. Wales has so many islands!

Caldey Island is an amazing tranquil place even with all the tourists. Its a short ride on a small boat, so only a relatively small amount of tourists. Well worth a trip if you're in that part of Wales.You can have a tour of the monastery, but only if you're male.
