"Head out of Patricks onto the promenade, turn right
and if you keep the sea on your left you will be able to follow a coastal
path past Bracelet and Limeslade bays, round the cliff path to Rotherslade,
Langland and Caswell bays. A pit stop for an ice cream and if it's
really warm find a good space on any one of the beaches, relax and take
a swim.Then up the steep hill from Caswell and follow the road back
to Mumbles, along the promenade;final destination Patricks in time
for a relaxing bath, a drink and then a well deserved dinner". |
