Mumbles - "Gateway To The Gower" (Walking To Langland And Caswell Bay, Is The Path Open?)

Join me on a walk from Mumbles Pier on the edge of Swansea Bay, along the Gower coastline to Langland Bay and Caswell Bay on the Wales coast path.
Mumbles lies on the western edge of Swansea Bay and is often regarded as the gateway to the Gower Peninsula.
The Wales coast path continues from Mumbles and Bracelet Bay to Langland Bay and where I finally stop, Caswell Bay.
I mention that the path could be closed - it is due to close periodically over the next 6 months (Jan 2022) to repair damage due to subsidence.

Thank you! How beautiful. My childhood holidays were here, with my lovely late Mum who was born in John Street, one of nine children. I'm going back this Summer as it is my happy place.

[@flydriveexplore]

Thank you very much!

[@David_Nurse]

Another enjoyable video. I have walked the Caswell to Langland a few times. Seals can be spotted often on this section. Great that the weather stayed fine.

[@flydriveexplore]

Glad you enjoyed, I did see a couple of seals under the pier a few years ago.

Super walk i dont get past Mumbles in my wheelchair.

[@AliceGoss]

I've been to Swansea on many occasions but never ventured down to the Mumbles. It's on my visit list for this year.

[@flydriveexplore]

Definitely worth a trip down

[@GwynnB]

Great video

[@flydriveexplore]

Glad you enjoyed.

[@pauljones1350]

You give it a seal of approval, such a nice days weather you seem to have had, was surprised to learn the big apple is one of many that once stood, 100 years old soon, loved the summerhouse story. You put such detail into your trips excellent.

[@flydriveexplore]

"Seal of Approval" 😝 Yes, I was making the most of the sunny weather.

[@lcook0825]

Nice morning walk for sure. Wonderful weather as well.

[@flydriveexplore]

Yes it was.

[@pauljones1350]

By the way I think in general the beach huts derive from carted huts that they used at the seafront so victorians fully clothed changed into their bathing costumes where the sea meets the sand .guess they got tired of carting them around and that’s where the idea of the beach huts stationed at the top of beaches come from .

[@flydriveexplore]

I don't know how long those current beach huts have been there but I've seen old pics of versions along the bay including the old bathing machines on wheels.

[@pauljones1350]

@@flydriveexplore about a hundred years at top of beach the huts have been in some form or other .idea comes from the cart with shacks on pushed down to seafront

Nice live video I enjoyed it can't wait to see more soon. Your live videos are always enjoyable. I've been to England years ago. It's very beautiful and historical. Have a great day greetings from Canada 😀

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks for watching, yes there is plenty of history around the country.

[@margarita0321]

Simply LUSH :-) Da Iawn Marcus ! I love Mumbles and just to add the other side of Swansea beach and the view form this one of the tallest buildings with "Grape and Olive" restaurant. Thank you and looking forward to your next adventures with all the paths open :-)

[@flydriveexplore]

Glad you enjoyed it! We have been to the Grape and Olive but it was quite a few years ago.

Nice vid your pretty correct

[@davidjones1948]

The Mumbles 'train' was in fact the world's fFIRST Tram! Now trams are al over Europe, and seem so modern, but they began in the Mumbles. What did the council do? Well throw it in the bin of course

[@flydriveexplore]

Same here in Porthcawl, wish we still had the rail connection.

[@davidjones1948]

@@flydriveexplore sad isn't it?

[@RobCharles1981]

Enjoyed that Marcus - its a walk I want to do! :-)

[@flydriveexplore]

It's a great walk when the sun's out. They are going to be closing sections intermittently over the next few months as they repair parts of it.

[@RobCharles1981]

@@flydriveexplore I read that too - its just a matter of when it will close - so will have to find out! :-)

[@lcook0825]

Hello Marcus. Say hello to Mel as well.

[@flydriveexplore]

Will do 👍

[@hodderpaul]

I thought there was one of those apples in Porthcawl. I think it was in the fair but I could be wrong as when you get older the memory. Does in my case anyway. Never heard of the breasts, lol!

[@flydriveexplore]

Apparently there was one in Porthcawl in the 1930s but it must have gone long before I was around.
