School’s out for summer and Swansea Bay, where the sea meets the hills and every path leads to a new adventure, is bursting with outdoor activities that promise fresh air, fun and unforgettable memories. Check out the city’s outdoor activity highlights…
Hire a pedalo and glide across the lake, you’ll know you’re in Swansea as it’s less Swallows and Amazons and more Swans and Dragons, but the adventure is just as good! Then test your putting skills on the crazy golf course, all nestled in the lush greenery of Singleton Park – watch out for the dinosaurs hiding in the trees!
Perfect for families, Blackpill Lido is a free paddling pool with water features and adjacent playground just a few steps from the beach. Why not make a splash before taking a stroll or bike ride along Swansea Prom?
Hop on the Swansea Bay Rider, a 72-seat land train that follows the path of the original Mumbles Railway between Blackpill Lido and Southend in Mumbles. It really is the easy way to enjoy the sights and sounds of Swansea Prom! Running 10am – 6pm daily during the summer holidays.
Nestled just a stone’s throw from the seafront in Mumbles, Southend Gardens is a great spot for a bit of family fun. Whether you’re a mini-golf pro or first-time putter you’ll find the Crazy Golf course will add playful twist to your day. After your game you can enjoy the children’s playground with amusing new features linking the gardens to the prom.
