Situated on the treasured Gower Peninsula and backed by dramatic cliffs, Bracelet Bay is a small rocky bay where sand is exposed as the tide drops.

There are lots of rock pools to explore and from Mumbles lighthouse the view stretches across the Bristol Channel. You can swim here but be careful of the rocks and strong rip currents. There is a restaurant, bar and ice cream parlour nearby and you are pretty close to Mumbles Hill Nature Reserve.

Bracelet Bay is adjacent to the Gower Coast Path and the Wales Coast Path.
