For boating enthusiasts who fancy something a bit
different this year, why not check out the South Wales Boat Show in the
picturesque town of Margam Park, from 15-17 June.
Near Port
Talbot, the show already has over 100 exhibitors and estimates there will
be 250-300 craft at the show. Last year thousands attended the show with
exhibitors selling over £1,000,000 of boat, equipment and
services.
With a 5,500sq foot marquee, and a fully booked marina,
the show will have plenty on offer for the family. As well as browsing the
marine treasures of the exhibitors you can try a boat on the lake for
free, or let the kids play on the pirate shipwreck on Aberavon Beach.
There's also go karting, a fairground and paintball to entertain the kids.
An RNLI Sea Safety Road Show will demonstrate vital safety tips and The
Wave / Swansea Sound Roadshow will provide live entertainment, music,
games and quizzes on and off the water.
