Swansea is a major city, located in South Wales. After Cardiff, it is Wales's second largest city.
Swansea has some of Britain's best beaches for surfing and all kinds of watersports, including sailing, canoeing, fishing and waterskiing. Curiously, the coast here has the second highest tide in the world.
The impressive limestone cliffs here are ideal for climbing, and the hills and beaches around are good for horseriding. There are also some great golf courses in spectacular locations.
One of the most popular attractions in the area is Afan Forest Park, which has been rated as one of the 10 best walking sites in the world. This beautiful valley offers walking, cycling, horseriding and other outdoor activities.
Swansea itself offers a large variety of cultural activities for all tastes, including some interesting museums and art galleries.
