Hiking

great views and great for a photo

Running

This beach is approximately 1-1.5 miles long, great to walk when the tide is out, however there is nearly zero beach when the tide is in so do watch out for tide times. There is a promenade most of the way along.

Hiking

Whitley Bay Beach, a golden sand Blue Flag award-winning beach, stretches from Whitley Bay North towards St Mary's Lighthouse. It is a popular place for recreation and is regularly used by walkers. The promenade and The Links have wonderful walks with the beach as a magnificent backdrop.
