Wow, what a hidden treasure! The beach boasts of golden sand and is simply stunning. Surprisingly, it was almost deserted on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

In my opinion, the beach in Essex is the best one around. It's clean, has plenty of golden sand, and offers great fishing opportunities and breathtaking views. Additionally, there's plenty of space to relax and enjoy the sun. The fact that it's pet-friendly is a huge plus. However, please be mindful of your rubbish and dispose of it properly in the bins on the front.

I absolutely adore this destination - the beaches are covered in soft, yellow sand with a sprinkling of pebbles and shells, perfect for little ones to investigate. There are plenty of options for delicious meals, both breakfast and lunch, and the local area is bustling with activity, including three shops, a beach bar stocked with refreshing ice creams and beach toys, two amusement arcades, and two pubs. It's wonderful to see so much investment being poured into the area. A leisurely stroll along the seawall leads you into Clacton, and from there, you can continue on to Walton and Frinton. This idyllic spot is ideal for a peaceful family vacation on quiet, serene beaches.
