Michael and Julie Bowell Interesting sculptured benches along the promenade which are well constructed with solid materials. Unique artwork which looks good, but personally not sure if goes with the surrounding scenery, will let others judge that for themselves. Otherwise great for photo opportunities!

Chris Riht-Colþræd Great day out for the kids, little funfair less than 50m from the beach, big greens for kites/ball games/running around, reasonable beach, all close together. Parking is £7.40 all day, could be worse. Definitely a chips, doughnuts, sandcastles, crabbing sort of place.

Karen B It is a nice beach that is a mixture of pebbles and grassy sand dunes. It is important to note that this is not a nudist beach as, unlike most non-nudist beaches, they have plenty of signs letting you know this fact.

Nicolas Povall Super beach, but super busy, it’s going to have great facilities, once all the new showers and toilets are open, the purpose built car park is open and is very reasonable. Be warned though the food huts are very expensive so make sure you take your bags of supermarket grub
