Swansea: A City of History, Nature and Splendid Beaches

Recognised as the second largest city in Wales, Swansea is a popular holiday destination amongst families. With a mix of world class museums, countless shopping options, medieval castles, and miles of fantastic beaches, the area offers plenty of things to see and do. Swansea is also a great place to explore on foot, thanks to most points of interest being situated in the compact – and lively – city centre.

History to Discover

With a rich industrial heritage, it should come as no surprise that Swansea celebrates its history in various ways. One such example of this is the numerous museums that inhabit the city. For a fascinating look at the Industrial Revolution, the National Waterfront Museum is a highlight of the area for many visitors. Additional museums in the city centre that have generated rave reviews include the Swansea Museum, Egypt Centre and Dylan Thomas Centre. Speaking of Dylan Thomas, and if you want to learn more about this famous poet and writer’s life, the Dylan Thomas Birth Place is a site that cannot be missed! Further afield and away from the hotels, shops and seafront, you will find the ruins of Pennard Castle tucked away next to Three Cliffs Bay. This isn’t the only castle in Swansea, with Oystermouth Castle – which dates back to the 12th century and overlooks Mumbles village – a place you should especially seek during your travels if you’re interested in history and wonderful views.

Sights & Attractions

When it comes to scenic views and tranquil settings, Swansea is certainly not limited in that aspect. Along with a range of highly rated beaches – including Llangennith Beach and Swansea Beach – the Gower Peninsula is an attraction that is certainly worth visiting. With stunning valleys and woodlands to explore, the Gower Peninsula was one of the very first sites in the UK to be awarded as an area of outstanding natural beauty. Yet away from charming points of nature that are a photographers dream, plenty of diverse excitement can be had in the city. For example, the Swansea Marina supplies an enjoyable spot that combines eye-catching sights with shops and eateries. The LC is an expansive waterpark that is popular with those of all ages. Family-friendly fun is also the order of the day at attractions such as the Swansea Community Farm, The Chocolate Factory and Mumbles Pier. And if sport is your thing, the Liberty Stadium is home to Premier League football team Swansea City, while Glamorgan Cricket Club feature at the local St. Helen’s Ground.

Catering to Shoppers

When you usually go travelling, does your hotel room become a temporary storage container for an abundance of purchased delights and gifts? Well if that is the case, you will be thrilled to note that Swansea boasts a wide variety of shopping options to cater for all wants and needs. As well as numerous independent boutique stores and famous chains occupying the high street, a visit to the Quadrant Shopping Centre is a must if you are a shopaholic. Positioned in the heart of the city and going strong since the 1970’s, this expansive shopping centre contains an array of popular stores under one roof. As for grabbing some deals and unique items, the award-winning Swansea Market is your one-stop place to visit in the area. Open six days a week and recognised as the largest indoor market in Wales, this particular attraction has over 100 stalls that sell everything from local food produce to spa and beauty treats.

Dining & Drinking

With over 500 dining options available – and many of which can be found in the heart of the city – you will not be short of inspiration when it comes to finding a suitable restaurant in Swansea. Now while there is an assortment of fine dining establishments that will provide the finest in gastronomy, the area is also home to countless inexpensive picks if you are on a tighter budget. And when it comes to the type of cuisine served, this aspect of Swansea eateries is just as varied. So from traditional British fare to exotic and contemporary flavours via Asia, the city is spoilt for choice in terms of restaurants that offer diverse, exciting flavours. Later on and once the sun goes down, the vibrant nightlife of Swansea comes to life. With energetic nightclubs aimed at young adults to relaxing watering holes that feature live music acts, all tastes and requirements are met when it comes to celebrating the night away.
