Cardiff marinas
Cardiff, the Welsh capital, has transformed former docklands into a lively waterfront of modern architecture and cultural venues.
Cardiff
A visit by yacht begins in Cardiff Bay, the former coal docklands now surrounding a freshwater bay behind a sea barrage. Restaurants, waterfront walks, the Welsh Parliament building and Wales Millennium Centre give the area a lively cultural character.
The historic city centre lies farther inland. Cardiff Castle, covered shopping arcades and parks are reasons to explore beyond the bay. A stay offers museums, performances and the everyday life of a capital city alongside reminders of its port history.
