As you take in the glorious sweep of Swansea Bay you will pass the cenotaph and arrive at the next major stop en-route.

Here you will be able to explore two more of Swansea's best loved parks as well as a number of unique attractions.

Singleton Park (1), the largest park in the city, has acres of simple, unadorned green space. The walled Botanical Gardens (2) at the top of the park contain fine specimens of rare and exotic plants from around the world.  The gardens also host weekly plant sales from April until September. 

Nearby, Brynmill Park (3), Swansea's first formal park, is home to a large lake and a visitor's centre which provides a focal point for exploring the diverse wildlife inhabiting the park. There is also a children's play area and a bowling green.  Dating back to 1872 Brynmill Park is of national interest through its Grade II listing by Cadw's Register of Parks and Gardens of Historic Interest.

For those interested in arts and music, the Taliesin Arts Centre (4), based in the grounds of Swansea University, hosts a wide variety of visiting exhibitions and musical performances throughout the year.  If you fancy something a bit different then pop in to the Egypt Centre (4), a museum of Egyptian antiquities, where you can try your hand at mummification or handle real Egyptian objects.

Situated next to the university is Singleton Boating Lake (5). Here you can take a ride on the dragon and swan pedalos, try your hand at crazy golf or just sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery whilst the children run wild in the fantastic play area.

If you want a swim and it is too cold to go in the sea then head up to Wales National Pool (6),situated just up the road from Singleton Boating Lake.  The Wales National Pool has a 50m swimming pool and a smaller a 25m pool.  As well as training swimmers for the London 2012 Olympics the pool is open to the public at set times during the day.

Running adjacent to the prom is Ashleigh Road Pitch and Putt (7), a 10 hole family-friendly golf course. Equipment can be hired and no handicap certificate is required, making it ideal for everyone. Just turn up, pay and play

Don't miss...

Fishing (5) - when the pedalos aren't operating the boating lake is also a great spot for anglers.

Trim Trail (8) - enjoy a short, gentle workout or just spend a few minutes playing around with each exercise station.

Swansea Bay (9) - paddle in the sea or just sit and relax on the sand.
