Beadnell Bay
Beadnell Bay is a broad, sandy beach set within a picturesque horseshoe-shaped bay, located just south of the village of Beadnell. The sandy beach curves to form a natural harbour, while grassy sand dunes lie behind the beach, with fields stretching beyond.. The gently sloping sandy beach can result in a long distance to the sea at low tide. Beadnell is a popular destination for holidaymakers. The beach is a hotspot for swimming and an array of watersports, including surfing, sailing, paddle boarding, windsurfing, and kitesurfing. The village features a sailing club and shops offering water sports equipment for sale or rent. For the more adventurous, the area also provides opportunities for snorkelling and scuba diving. Kiters - The Beach covers a large range of wind directions and its shallow shelving beach means there's usually some flat water between the waves. Whilst the beach is generally sandy and hazard free, there are a few reefs at low tide and a rocky spit close to the harbour. The shifting sands quite often uncovers some patches of rocks close to the high tide line too. On spring high tides the sands are very narrow hence can be nigh on impossible to launch, so is best avoiding in these conditions. For visitors, there is a pay-and-display car park at the northern end of the beach, complete with public toilets and beach access via a slipway. Uniquely, Beadnell village boasts the only west-facing harbour along England’s east coast. From here, private boats can sail to the nearby Farne Islands, a haven for puffins, terns, seals, and other wildlife. The village also offers a selection of dining options, including a 15th-century pub and a village shop.
