Swansea
At the heart of South Wales, the area of Swansea is many destinations rolled into one. Swansea, the ‘city by the sea’ harbours the picturesque resort The Mumbles, on the opposite side of Swansea Bay. As a wider area, Swansea contains some of the UK’s finest coastline on the Gower Peninsula, a cherished area of outstanding beauty. The River Tawe can be fished just north of Swansea City by game anglers. The countryside’s mountainous slopes and rolling valleys are a popular destination for walkers, cyclists and adrenaline-hungry mountain bikers. You can enjoy the landscape by following one of the many dedicated trails.
