Constructed during the late 19th Century, it was designed by W. Sutcliffe Marsh for the Mumbles Railway and Pier Company as the terminus of the line from Swansea. Visitors these days will find a range of traditional seaside attractions like bowling alleys, air hockey tables and arcade machines in the same spot where once a bandstand serenaded the passengers boarding and disembarking the steamers of the P & A Campbell White Funnel Fleet. The Victorian-style beach cafe offers a cream tea to die for, while the Pirate Captain ride offers the chance to see who's the greatest sea-dog of Mumbles Pier.

4. Oystermouth Castle

In recent years, efforts to restore the former glories of Oystermouth Castle have received a significant funding boost, and a major refurbishment has seen the introduction of a modern, 30ft high glass bridge for visitors to walk around so that they can get a close look at the castle’s upper levels, including Alina’s Chapel with views out to the sea, and the discovery of many historical relics, from coins to hidden staircases, remnants of a painting and some graffiti, both of which may date back as far as the 14th Century.
