Swansea Beach

8.8/10 (270 reviews)
Swansea Beach, the waterfront beach for the city of Swansea, stretches for five miles between the Maritime Quarter and the ‘Knab Rock’ near Mumbles in Wales. Popular since Victorian times, the beach throngs with sun-lovers during the summer months who come for the dunes, golden sands and fine swimming. It’s recommended by the Marine Conservation Society for the quality of its water and the cleanliness of the sand.

"Nice place to stay except for a singer performing in the bar due to a function taking place. He was directly below our room by the open staircase and didn’t finish until midnight. So it felt as if he was in the room with us. Apart from that the hotel is good, room nice and clean with a spotless bathroom. ..."
