Welsh Coast Radio broadcasts from Tircoed Village in Swansea and serves the city, the surrounding communities and the wider South Wales coast. The station can be heard on 106.5FM in North and East Swansea, online, through its app and on smart speakers, giving it a proper local footprint while still being easy to stream anywhere.

The station has gone through a few names, but the local core is still the point. Radio Tircoed became SA Radio Live, and after a further change in 2025 the service moved forward as Welsh Coast Radio. That history matters because it gives the station a stronger story than a random online stream: it is rooted in Tircoed Village, built around Swansea voices and designed to support the local area.

Welsh Coast Radio mixes music from across the decades with local information, presenter-led shows, travel updates, community stories, local events and support for Welsh and Swansea-based music. Its own description talks about being independent, community-shaped and powered by presenters, which is exactly the lane this station should own: local radio for Swansea and South Wales with personality, heritage and a coastal identity.

  • Clare-Anna Mitchell: Presents the Big Breakfast Show, waking up Swansea with music from across the decades, local travel, information and the 9 o’clock Flashback.
