Swansea Surf centre indoors and of course on our beautiful Gower surfing beaches

Received this from the tourism team here in Swansea, hopefully this will help swansea surf centre progress with the surfing development plan.

The revolutionary Swansea Leisure Centre will bring all the thrills of seaside surfing indoors!

A multi-million pound project is under way to re-open Swansea Leisure Centre in 2008. The new facility will boast a 21^st century water park, creating Britain's leading indoor water attraction.

The leisure centre will boast:

­- An indoor water park consisting of a network of pools, water rides, and slides, including the Master Blaster and the Surf Rider, which is an indoor surfing ride.

­- A lazy river will allow children to body surf, and there will be an interactive pool with play equipment, a toddler teaching facility in the Lagoon Pool and baby classes in the Kid's Pool;

- Multi-purpose sports and exhibition hall for sports, conferences, exhibitions and concerts;

- Wales' biggest fitness arena with a comprehensive range of cutting-edge equipment and monitoring systems, weights and free-motion machines;

­- Two aerobic studios;

­- Health spa and treatments centre;

­- Poolside café, four-storey Playzone, party and function rooms and a nine-metre climbing wall.

­Standing alongside the National Waterfront Museum, this new cultural and leisure hub is expected to attract over one million visitors a year.

I have so enjoyed checking out your site and especially the shots of the Gower Peninsula - I spent some time there a couple of years ago but at the time I wasn't into surfing, and didn't realise that it was a good spot for surfing. I am now living in California and learning to surf, and I am kicking myself that I didn't see the light before now - I would have loved to have surfed along the beautiful Welsh coastline!
