Perhaps because they don’t always the weather of the continent to match, beaches in the UK don’t get the recognition they deserve. We asked via our Twitter account what your favourite UK beaches are and why. Here’s 8 of your responses that caught our eye.
- ooh, Studland in Dorset is pretty stunning but I just discovered West Bay near Bridport yesterday with its AMAZING cliffs. (@doodlegoeswest)
- Chepstow Sands, because its unspoiled and inaccessible other then on foot (@PencoedCastle)
- Bamburgh Beach in North Northumberland, great flat sandy beach, impressive castle as a backdrop (@GeorgeFWhite)
- just had a fantastic weekend in Camber Sands. The most amazing beach and warm water because it is relatively shallow (@collectivemark)
- our favourite beach is at St Annes. It has such a great family buzz to it. You feel like you’re a million miles from stress. (@touristboard)
- Aberdovey, long, sandy, backdrop of Snowdonia. Followed close second by Porthminster Beach in St Ives (Beach Cafe is great ) (@markgj)
- its got to be Sandbanks Beach in Dorset, guaranteed always clean, great promenade and the crazy golf is awesome! (@mOmafoods)
- Silver Sands in Aberdour, Fife – beautiful bay, clean beach and good facilities (@BraeScotland)
