Beautiful beaches near you
A day at the seaside is hard to beat. From the aquamarine waters of Barafundle Bay to the rugged mountainous landscape of the Murlough National Nature Reserve, we care for 780 miles of spectacular coastline around England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Here's a selection of some of the best spots to sink your feet into the sand, watch the sun melt into the sea and take a refreshing dip at a coastal place of beauty that's local to you.
We're gradually and safely reopening the places you love so you can explore the landscapes and nature we've all missed. We recommend that you check the web page of the place you'd like to visit before you set off to see if they're open.
We’ve opened more than 200 coast and countryside car parks in England, Northern Ireland and Wales. We're following government advice closely and will reopen more places as soon as we can. If you're thinking about visiting the coast or a sandy beach, please stay local where possible. We’ll keep the website up to date with the latest opening information so please keep checking.
