There's a bit of noise about Swansea's brand new 1.1-acre coastal park.
The attraction has been broadly welcomed and become a popular place to gather since it was opened by Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, in March, 2022. Situated next to Swansea Arena, the park forms part of Swansea Council's £135 million Copr Bay phase one district.
The interactive park includes plenty of new greenery, play areas for children, bug hotels, water features and a selection of new trees. It also has solar-powered benches allowing people to charge smartphones, tablets and laptops. It's the first new park in Swansea since Victorian times, and offers a new place for parents to keep their kids entertained, or simply for adults to have a stroll.
