Talacre Beach

This was my first time at this beach and I absolutely enjoyed it. There are designated areas for walking along the coast paths, which is great for those who enjoy it. Additionally, there are plenty of beautiful scenery and opportunities for taking photos. With ice cream shops nearby, it's a perfect day out for families. The beach is spacious and I believe many people will have a great time here. I'm already excited for my next visit.

This charming small sandy beach offers a delightful escape. The tide fluctuates significantly, so it's advisable to plan ahead. At times, you can stroll out to Little Eye, while other times the sea covers the marine lake entirely. In the summer, the beach comes alive with activities like donkey rides and nearby refreshment options. Keep an eye out for jellyfish, especially when the sea is warmer.

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.
