I hate Sandy beaches! Give me your best pebble beach recommendations!

[PotatoCat]

Having just returned from a week in Hayling Island, I am absolutely sold on pebble beach holidays from now on! I always thought I hated the beach.... nope, just the sand! The joy of flicking pebbles into a bucket of seawater will stay with me forever!

I am now armed with beach shoes and a foldy up chair... the world is a pebbly oyster!

Give me your best pebbly recommendations!

the Suffolk coast - Aldeburgh, Thorpeness, Dunwich area! All so lovely and lots of lovely towns and things to do

Kimmeridge Bay, Dorset! One of my very favourite places ever - www.visit-dorset.com/things-to-do/kimmeridge-bay-p581223
Gets a bit busy on a fine day with paddle boarders, sea kayakers etc but I’ve not yet seen the beach at all crowded.

Brighton?

Brighton! Ultimate pebbles!

Ooh, cross-posted with @Babymamamama there!

Budleigh Salterton
Sidmouth

Sussex is all about the pebbly beach!

Blackpool sands, Devon

I have been there for decades but isn't Ramsgate pebbles - it use to be nice

Another vote for budleigh salterton - beautiful round pebbles.

Im totally with you re the sandy beach. I'll choose pebbles every day. I like to bring a few home. This is absolutely not allowed in budleigh though.

Pebble beaches are often less busy too - bonus.

Deal, in Kent.

I love pebble beaches too!!

Folkestone.

Salthouse Norfolk

We are currently staying in walmer, just down from deal. Miles of quiet pebbly beaches to enjoy.

Tankerton near Whitstable. Gorgeous for swimming and pebbly.

I have discovered lugworms this year so I'm FULLY converted to pebbly beaches. 🤢🤮

Ringstead in Dorset as someone above mentioned is a fabulous beach with a little shop its so quiet and lovely.
Also recently visited a friend in Folkestone and the beach was really nice.

Rye Harbour in Kent. Ds loves it (he hates sand too)

Actually I think Rye Harbour is Sussex, anyway, it's on the border.

Here in Weymouth tourists come for the sandy end of the beach, but all the cool kids are on the pebbly end at Greenhill - we've got the lot.

(And yes, Chesil is pebble central, but not at all safe for swimming.)

I second Ringstead, Kimmeridge and add West Bay for Dorset.
