Scarborough is really nice, I love the architecture, the funicular railway, the beach is beautiful, watching the lifeboats turn in the evening. Plenty of amusement arcades, they light up the beach at night. Place also has a very friendly atmosphere. Went last year and loved it. Filey is also beautiful, great place for kids. And the surrounding countryside is stunning.
Kent has some great seaside towns, Hythe with its Martello towers on the beach and steam train to Dungeoness. Deal is also lovely, chilled out. Broadstairs is great, lovely busy beach with a great walk heading off to Ramsgate, and also nearby is Botany Bay. Beautiful big white cliffs and arches, sandy beach and turquoise sea, as the tide goes out it’s great for rock pools. Whitstable is great for shopping, like Camden Market used to be, but by the sea. Amazing buzz down by the beach, great for fish n chips watching the sunset over the sea. I think Kent had the best fish n chips!
Weymouth is practically in my family’s DNA, we have been going for years. Fantastic beach, all the buzz of an old school holiday with trampolines and Punch and Judy. The harbour ad backstreets are beautiful, love all the Victorian guest houses. I wish they hadn’t got rid of the old lights on the clock and prom, those lazers just don’t have the magic.
