Places to see in ( Swansea - UK ) Swansea Beach
Swansea Beach stretches for five miles along Swansea Bay between the Maritime Quarter and the Knab Rock near Mumbles in Wales. Swansea Beach has a couple of named sections. The section of beach just outside Victoria park is known as The Slip. Blackpill Beach is the section around the mouth of the Clyne River.
In recent years, tourism has provided a boost to the local economy. Swansea Bay itself was popular in Victorian times and in the early part of the 20th century. However, despite having dunes and golden sands over a large section of the Bay all the way from the mouth of the River Neath to Blackpill, with the exception of the Swansea Docks breakwater, it now rarely hosts more than a few hundred visitors on even the best day, even in the height of summer and has seen little of the tourist boom.
In an attempt to popularise the Bay, in late February 2007, Swansea Council announced plans for a major revamp of the entire Bay from The Slip all the way round to Mumbles Pier. These include new toilets at The Slip, further improvements to the St. Helens Ground, housing on part of the Recreation Ground, a new 'Extreme Sports' Centre at Sketty Lane, further improvements at the popular Blackpill Lido including a new cycle and pedestrian bridge linking the coast path to the Clyne Valley Cycle Path, a multi-story car park at Mumbles Quarry and mixed development at Oystermouth Square and improvements to the Mumbles Pier. There are children's play areas at Blackpill and the area near the Swansea city centre called The Slip.

Swansea to Mumbles Pier on Beach Path Swansea Wales - 2018
SWANSEA WALES August 5 , 2018. Mumbles Pier is quite a long walk alongside Swansea Bay, about Five miles, from Swansea. The area was crowded for the annual raft race and the 30 degree heat made walking long and tiring!
Beach Rugby Chaos Swansea Bay.
This video is about Beach Rugby Chaos....Dozens got involved in fighting on the pitch, four teams expelled, police and security called for to sort the chaos.
The tournament got under way around 11am and as it reached its conclusion at about 3pm fighting between the teams began on the sand pitches.
First of all it was two, and then four, and then ten and with in minutes over thirty were brawling on the sand. People on the side lines ran onto the pitch too get involved which made matters worse. The referee completely lost control of the situation and the organisers called for security and the police.
Players were violently pushing and shoving each other, some throwing punches with a clench fist. Security held down some players onto the sand too calm them down. The police moved some of the aggressive players away from the fight.
On the steps, thousands of spectators surged forward to see what was going on, this could of caused them too go over the top and fall onto hundreds sitting below!
And only minutes later another fight broke out on the pitch. This time spectators on the side line ran on the pitch and attacked a player which then in turn started another mass fight. Again the referee lost control and the organisers called for security and the police for the second time too sort out the chaos.
All four teams were expelled from the tournament and future tournaments.
Many mothers with children expressed their worries about the amount of alcohol that was present that day, it was obvious that players were under the influence of alcohol and appeared to be drunk before they went onto the pitch too play.
Was alcohol a contributory factor?
The event is very long, starts at 11am and finishes around 6pm and if you have been drinking alcohol in that period come 4pm you must be very unfit too play any game.

Swansea Bay is a bay on the Bristol Channel on the southern coast of Wales. Places on the bay include Swansea and Port Talbot. The River Neath, River Tawe, River Afan, River Kenfig and Clyne River flow into the bay.
Swansea Bay (and upper reaches of the Bristol Channel) experience a large tidal range. The shipping ports in Swansea Bay are Swansea Docks, Port Talbot Docks and Briton Ferry wharfs.
Oyster fishing was once an important industry in Swansea Bay, employing 600 people at its height in the 1860s. However, overfishing, disease and pollution had all but wiped out the oyster population by 1920. In 2005 plans were announced to reintroduce the Oyster farming industry.
Swansea Bay is lined with sandy beaches. Each stretch of beach within the bay has its own individual name:

Суо́нси — прибрежный город и графство в Уэльсе.
Суо́нси — второй по величине город Уэльса после Кардиффа. Является унитарной административной единицей со статусом города (англ. city), который был дан Суонси в 1969 году в честь получения сыном королевы Елизаветы II Чарльзом титула Принца Уэльского.
Город расположен в южном Уэльсе, непосредственно к востоку от полуострова Гауэр, который административно входит в его состав, и граничит с областями Кармартеншир на севере и Нит-Порт-Толбот на востоке. Суонси стал важным городом в XVIII и XIX веках, когда в южном Уэльсе бурно развивалась тяжёлая промышленность, но в меньшей степени, чем Кардифф и южные долины, был затронут иммиграцией из-за пределов Уэльса.
Английское название города этимологически значит «остров Лебедя».

Swansea, officially known as the City and County of Swansea, is a coastal city and county in Wales. Swansea is the second largest city in Wales after Cardiff, and the twenty-fifth largest city in the UK.
Swansea lies within the historic county boundaries of Glamorgan and the ancient Welsh commote of Gŵyr. Situated on the sandy South West Wales coast, the county of Swansea area includes the Gower Peninsula and the Lliw uplands.
The City and County of Swansea local authority area is bordered by unitary authorities of Carmarthenshire to the north, and Neath Port Talbot to the east. Swansea is bounded by Swansea Bay and the Bristol Channel to the south. Swansea can be roughly divided into four physical areas. To the north are the Lliw uplands which are mainly open moorland, reaching the foothills of the Black Mountain. To the west is the Gower Peninsula with its rural landscape dotted with small villages. To the east is the coastal strip around Swansea Bay. Cutting though the middle from the south-east to the north-west is the urban and suburban zone stretching from the Swansea city centre to the towns of Gorseinon and Pontarddulais.
Swansea City A.F.C. (founded 1912) is the city's main football association team. Originally playing at the Vetch Field, they moved to the Liberty Stadium at the start of the 2005–2006 season, winning promotion to League One in their final year at their old stadium. The team presently play in the Premier League, after being promoted during the 2010/11 season. The Football Association of Wales had decided that for the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign, Wales would play all of their home ties at either the Cardiff City Stadium or the Liberty Stadium. Swansea has three association football clubs that play in the Welsh Football League: Garden Village, South Gower and West End.

Swansea, Wales, United Kingdom, Europe
Swansea, officially the City and County of Swansea, is a coastal city and county in Wales. It is Wales's second largest city. Swansea lies within the historic county boundaries of Glamorgan. Situated on the sandy South West Wales coast, the county area includes the Gower Peninsula and the Lliw uplands. The City and County of Swansea had a population of 239,000 in 2011, making it the second most populous local authority area in Wales after Cardiff. During its 19th-century industrial heyday, Swansea was a key centre of the copper industry, earning the nickname 'Copperopolis'. The port of Swansea initially traded in wine, hides, wool, cloth and later in coal. As the Industrial Revolution reached Wales,
the combination of port, local coal, and trading links with the West Country, Cornwall and Devon, meant that Swansea was the logical place to site copper smelting works. Smelters were operating by 1720 and proliferated. Following this, more coal mines (everywhere from north-east Gower to Clyne and Llangyfelach) were opened and smelters (mostly along the Tawe valley) were opened and flourished. Over the next century and a half, works were established to process arsenic, zinc and tin and to create tinplate and pottery. The city expanded rapidly in the 18th and 19th centuries, and was termed Copperopolis. From the late 17th century to 1801, Swansea's population grew by 500% the first official census (in 1841) indicated that, with 6,099 inhabitants, Swansea had become significantly larger than Glamorgan's county town, Cardiff, and was the second most populous town in Wales behind Merthyr Tydfil (which had a population of 7,705). However, the census understated Swansea's true size, as much of the built-up area lay outside the contemporary boundaries of the borough; the total population was actually 10,117. Swansea's population was later overtaken by Merthyr in 1821 and by Cardiff in 1881, although in the latter year Swansea once again surpassed Merthyr. Much of Swansea's growth was due to migration from within and beyond Wales in 1881, more than a third of the borough's population had been born outside Swansea and Glamorgan, and just under a quarter outside Wales. Through the 20th century, heavy industries in the town declined, leaving the Lower Swansea Valley filled with derelict works and mounds of waste products from them. The Lower Swansea Valley Scheme (which still continues) reclaimed much of the land. The present Enterprise Zone was the result and, of the many original docks, only those outside the city continue to work as docks; North Dock is now Parc Tawe and South Dock became the Marina. Little city-centre evidence, beyond parts of the road layout, remains from medieval Swansea; its industrial importance made it the target of bombing, known as the Blitz in World War II, and the centre was flattened completely. The city has three Grade One listed buildings, these being the Guildhall, Swansea Castle and the Morriston Tabernacle. Whilst the city itself has a long history, many of the city centre buildings are post-war as much of the original centre was destroyed by World War II bombing on the 19th, 20th and 21 February 1941 (the 'Three Nights Blitz'). Within the city centre are the ruins of the castle, the Marina, the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea Museum, the Dylan Thomas Centre, the Environment Centre, and the Market, which is the largest covered market in Wales. It backs onto the Quadrant Shopping Centre which opened in 1978 and the adjoining St David's Centre opened in 1982. Other notable modern buildings are the BT Tower (formerly the GPO tower) built around 1970, Alexandra House opened in 1976, County Hall opened in July 1982. Swansea Leisure Centre opened in 1977; it has undergone extensive refurbishment which retained elements of the original structure and re-opened in March 2008. Swansea was granted city status in 1969, to mark Prince Charles's investiture as the Prince of Wales.
