Mumbles Pier & Lifeboat Museum, Swansea

Mumbles Pier is a 225 meters long tribute to Victorian architecture. It was built in 1898, and then closed and reopened due to some extremely necessary refurbishment measures: the renewal of the steel around the entrance, in 1987. Next to the pier, you can pop into the Mumbles Lifeboat Museum. Here you will find historical records of lifeboat in Mumbles and real equipment used by several crews in the past. Today, at the pier, you can enjoy an ice-cream, be mesmerized by the views of the bay and have fun at the amusement arcades, which are in operation since 1937.
