Swansea Bay Beach Guide

Our Swansea Bay Beach Guide is a comprehensive guide to all the magnificent beaches that are on offer in Swansea Bay, Mumbles and Gower.

Swansea is known for its award-winning beaches including the 10th best beach in the world – Rhossili Bay, and the iconic Worm’s Head. With 20 beaches covering over 30 miles of coastline, no visit to Swansea is complete without a trip to the beach.

If you’re looking to hit the water whilst staying in the area Langland Bay, or Llangennith have some of the best waves for you to catch on your surfboard.

For the adrenaline junkies amongst you, Gower Adventures offers a whole range of activities like Rock Climbing at Three Cliffs Bay and Sit on Top Sea Kayaking at Oxwich Bay. If you prefer a calmer time in the water, Gower Coast Adventures offers incredible opportunities to see local beach wildlife on their tours around the south Gower Coast.

For those more family focused, Rotherslade Bay Beach and Caswell Bay have plenty of sand for you and your little ones to enjoy, or if you head to the south end of Swansea Bay Beach, there’s plenty of play areas and outdoor activities to be found.
