Swansea

South Wales base with big-range tides

Swansea's marina lies behind a lock off the Tawe, with Swansea Bay and the Gower coast beyond. The tidal range means locking times govern movements, and boats tend to stay put between planned passages.

The surrounding industrial engineering base gives good access to fabrication and coating capability that pure leisure ports lack.

What owners book at Swansea

Local timing: Lift-out slots concentrate around October — confirm your date before the yard's winter list closes.
