Cardiff Bay Barrage can be walked across from Mermaid Quay through to Penarth Marina.
The barrage itself has a skateboard park, sand play park for children 2-10, views of the bay and a few small coffee shops along the way.
A great place to walk and explore or grab a spot on the grass on the barrage to watch sail boats, jet skiers or the extreme sailing events each July
