Swansea Bay is a glorious place to start your visit, and holds the title of Watersports Centre of Excellence. Offering sailing, paddle boarding, and surfing, amongst other activities, this is a must-do for any fans of messing around in water. The Bay itself is perfect for soaking up the rays, or a gentle stroll taking in the fresh sea air.
Culture vultures, and those wishing to learn about the history of Wales should head for the National Museum of Wales. With precious and unique treasures, some more than 250,000 years old, a fascinating collection of natural history, and an impressive art gallery, there’s something to interest everyone here.
For shopaholics, Swansea’s own Oxford Street can put other big city shopping districts to shame with big high street names and designer stores. But if you're looking for something a little more unique, head for the many boutiques that showcase the local talent, from studio glass to homemade shortbread. Why not treat a friend - and yourself, of course.
With theatres offering comedy, live music and plays, round your visit off with a sumptuous meal followed by a show, or try and win big at the casino, before hopping on the train home.
