Before the barrage was built, this area was subject to one of the highest tidal flows in the world, leaving nutritious but unattractive, smelly mudflats for a large part of each day. Not an ideal location to live or even spend much time, unless you were a birdwatcher or a fisherman. The birdwatchers have now moved further along the coast to the Newport Wetlands, and the fishermen take their chance where they can.

The area has taken on a continental feel. Cafes have outside seating areas, ideal for people-watching. Walkways with pleasant views of the bay, provide a reason to visit. Altogether an attractive space with high-value properties.
Home to the Senedd, the Millennium Centre, Harry Ramsden's Fish Bar and the Dr Who Experience, Cardiff Bay now has appeal for everyone.
