British Beaches
This site aims to list every beach in the British Isles, allowing you to find beaches close to where you live or where you're staying on holiday, as well as get an idea of what the beach is like and what goes on there before you visit.
As well as beach listings, we also include weather and tide times where possible plus links to accomodation in the local area.
More will be added in the course of the next few days and weeks!

Stunning beach with fantastic mountain views. Distant views to angelsey and we could even see Southstack! Clean water and safe and shallow for the kids. Huge sandy beach with loads of room and great for sandcastles. Saw a couple of sea kayaks and a windsurfer enjoying the sea [...]

Whitecliff Bay Bembridge Isle of Wight
This is a great wide beach that changes, as it is washed by the tides daily, but mostly it is a long expanse of soft sand, sheltered by the Culver Downs, with rock pools one end and flat sandstones the other and a strip of pebbles half-way. Two caravan sites [...]

Low Newton. Newton Haven Alnwick Northumberland
This is a lovely safe beach for family days out Except......... For climbing onto the rocks at low tide. You will get stranded if you're not careful but they are irresistible for adventurous kids. You can walk for miles. Not really a beach for big waves but a good starter [...]

Hest Bank Lancaster Lancashire
Although safe enough provided that no exploration too far out towards the sea is attempted, because there are nud-filled gulleys which mall children should be kept away from. There is a large grassed area close to the level crossing and ample though dusty parking spaces. The cafe serves decent, basic, [...]
