About Mumbles

Marking the western edge of Swansea Bay, the Mumbles is a picturesque headland on the south coast of Wales. It was once the terminus of the world’s first horse-drawn public train service, the Swansea and Mumbles Railway, and is home to a lifeboat station that has been in operation since 1866.

Things to do in Mumbles

Stretching for 255 metres into Swansea Bay is the Mumbles Pier, a Grade II-listed structure built in 1898 at the western terminus of the Swansea to Mumbles Railway. After a major renovation, it now houses an entertainment complex where you’ll find an amusement arcade, an ice-skating rink and a restaurant. You can cast a fishing line from the pier to see what’s biting or admire the Tamar-class vessel within the Mumbles Lifeboat Station.

Perched atop an island just off the headland is the Mumbles Lighthouse, which has been guiding ships along the coastline since 1794. Its whitewashed tower and adjoining fort are clearly visible from Bracelet Bay, a rocky beach where you can swim and stroll. Further west is Limeslade Bay, a sheltered cove that’s connected to Langland Bay via a cliffside trail.

Overlooking Swansea Bay is Oystermouth Castle, a Norman-built fortification that fell into ruin towards the end of the Middle Ages. After an extensive restoration, the castle is now open to visitors, with educational exhibits and a charming chapel where 14th-century paintings have been uncovered. A highlight of any visit is taking in the views across the Mumbles from the glass viewing platform.

Getting around Mumbles

The Mumbles is a 15-minute drive from the centre of Swansea and just over an hour from Cardiff Airport, which has flights to destinations across Europe. Buses connect from Swansea to the Mumbles and travel around the headland.
