Favourite UK seaside town?

[Rnm62]

Looking for somewhere to go for a nice UK seaside break with my partner and our 7 month old baby.

Ideally would like a nice beach to walk along and for our 7 month old to play on.
A few shops, cafes, fish and chips and ice cream nearby etc. Not really bothered about nightlife and clubs etc.

What’s your suggestions? Thanks everyone!!

Nairn is lovely but pretty far north

Saltburn
Bamburgh
Sandhaven

I really like Scarborough when you walk from town to the Sealife centre, it's a lovely long walk.

Southwold and Cromer

Where are you? I'd say the coastline from Whitley Bay down to Tynemouth.

North West

Thank you!

North Yorkshire coast particularly Filey.

Robin Hood Bay?
Southwold is also gorgeous but long drives are not great fun with babies.

We took a day trip to New Brighton (Wirral) the other day with our toddler and it was great, we all had a lovely time.

Agree with @IggyAce
Currently on hols in Northumberland & it’s stunning. Lots of lovely beaches.
Whitby and the surrounding area is amazing too.

My favourites are Croyde and Southwold, but both are quite far from you. Whitby is nice, haven't been anywhere else in that part of the UK though.

If you want a beautiful beach with endess golden sands, go to Lowestoft South Beach. Well maintained, plenty of space and RNLI lifeguarded. The town itself doesn't have much to recommend it and is a bit run down but there are loads of lovely towns (and beaches) nearby in south and east Norfolk and north Suffolk.

Also in with @IggyAce on Bamburgh which is my favourite place to the point I have a painting opposite my bed of that beach so I can wake up to it every day, Saltburn is great too. I don't know sandhaven though

Anglesey would be my pick.

Tenby

Filey

100% Filey

The bay is stunning, there is a beautiful walk Filey to Bempton

The town itself is stuck in a time warp, all the shops, cafes, takeaways are all independent, its tiny and basically consists of 2 streets and it isn't expensive to visit at all. Although very, very popular it shouldn't get as overcrowded as say Robin Hoods Bay.

It is worth visiting Scarborough, Sandsend, Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay and Staithes if you're up this way though.

Sandsend is really lovely. Staithes is beautiful but not much of a beach.

Poole
Swanage
Hunstanton, Wells, North Norfolk
Barmouth
Tenby
Bamburgh
Brid/Scarborough/Filey/Robin Hood Bay
Areas near Almouth
Weymss Bay

I love a good beach.

St Andrews
North Berwick
Nairn

Thanks for all your great suggestions everyone! Got a lot of places to look at!

Skegness! It’s actually got everyone your list plus a little sealife centre.

Seaburn and Roker beach.

Another vote for Tenby.

Whitley Bay and Southwold.

Always Weymouth in Dorset.
