Definitely not a swan song
Suddenly, everyone is
talking about the Swans
and the bright, breezy city
that’s home to this
exciting, giant-killing
Premier League team.
Isn’t it amazing
what a bit of success on the soccer pitch can achieve?

Inside the guide
But please don’t think
we’re just for the
soccer-mad. We’re
mad about surfing too
(in fact, all kinds of
watersports).
And sandcastles.
And seafood.
And shopping.

Marina and museums
Shopping and sandcastles
Go shopping – you’ll like our
mix of big stores and
independent speciality shops,
all neatly wrapped up in a
visitor-friendly city centre.
Then head for the beach.
Sandy Swansea Bay is just
across the road.
Swansea’s Marina is the Blue
Flag-waving, boat-filled focus
of an award-winning Maritime
Quarter that’s recognised as a
textbook example of how to
regenerate – and reinvent –
a city’s waterfront.
Also bridging the gap between
past, present and future is our
National Waterfront Museum,
a wow-factor venue that
attracts rave reviews for the way
it ‘puts you in the driving seat’
for a trip through 300 years of
industry and innovation. If you
like your museums a little more
conventional, you’ll love nearby
Swansea Museum, Wales’
oldest museum.
Cockles and culture
Swansea Market is famous for
its traditional values. It’s the
place to come for home-baked
goodies like welshcakes, fresh
fish and veg. And laverbread,
that unique local delicacy that’s
a kind of puréed seaweed. Not
forgetting Penclawdd cockles,
picked fresh on Gower and
best eaten straight from the bag
with some vinegar and pepper.
And the masterclass continues
at SA1, Swansea’s latest
waterfront development, where
shops, restaurants, leisure
facilities and apartments are
breathing new life into the city’s
historic docklands. Look out for
SA1’s remarkable new mural
art, an inventive blend of old
and new, Swansea-style.
Wet, wet, wet
All kinds of undercover water
games are played in the
Maritime Quarter’s LC,
including the UK’s first indoor
surfing experience. New kid on
the block (on the prom, actually)
is the 360 Beach and
Watersports Centre, where you
can enjoy kayaking, kitesurfing
and stand-up paddleboarding.
