It is a popular holiday destination due to the great beaches, especially of the Victorian seaside resort of the Mumbles which marks the gateway to the Gower Peninsular, Britain's first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The rugged coastline provides walking, cycling and climbing opportunities for visitors and venturing inland there are lush valleys and waterfalls to explore.

Attractions

The maritime city of Swansea has its fair share of culture and heritage with several museums and galleries including the National Waterfront Museum, Gower Heritage Centre and the National Showcaves Centre for Wales. Craig-Y-Nos Castle' in Swansea Valley is also worth a visit, marking an important part of Wales' National Heritage.
