Bracelet Bay

Situated on the treasured Gower Peninsula and backed by dramatic cliffs, Bracelet Bay is a small rocky bay where sand is exposed as the tide drops. There are lots of rock pools to explore and from Mumbles lighthouse the view stretches across the Bristol Channel. You can swim here but be careful of the rocks and strong rip currents. There is a restaurant, bar and ice cream parlour nearby and you are pretty close to Mumbles Hill Nature Reserve.

Access: The nearest town is Swansea . Take the A4067 to Mumbles, through the village to the headland. Buses every 20 minutes from Swansea to Mumbles.
