No need for raincoats for a lot of this summer. Some nice beaches in that list.

Slapton's near-ish to me.
It's great, they used to drag race down there in the 60s. On the one side of the road there's a brackish water of special scientific interest, the other is the very pebbly beach.
Interesting history there too - hundreds of US servicemen drowned there practicing for D Day, and the whole thing was covered up.

And yes, it does get busy in the summer. Good fish n chips too.

The phrase 'desolate beaches' gets my mind working.

I can see Chesil beach from the window of my holiday home.
Worth a visit (Chesil beach that is)

I've been to Banburgh. It wasn't that desolate!

I've been to both Bamburgh and Beadnell.

I've a feeling they'd call where you went Seahouses, which is just a touch south and a little bit bigger, but you can still see the castle (8-)

Anybody else notice that whoever created the slug can't count?

There's been some serious warming going on in some of those photos.

It doesn’t take much to keep the hordes away. Barafundle Bay in Pembrokeshire, Wales, is only a half kilometre stroll from the nearest car park, but the rough pathway wards off pushchairs, buggies and their bratty, noisy occupants nonetheless.


wtf?

shouldnt the beach I find aircraft bits at be listed?:(
