A picturesque bay with a sandy beach, surrounded by rolling hills and towering cliffs, offering scenic views, tranquil atmosphere, and opportunities for swimming, sunbathing, and water sports.
Beautiful beach. Drive there early for parking. Beautiful views. Loads of benches. Steepish hill to walk down from parking to the beach. Has toilets only two cubicles. Do expect a little wait when at busy times. When you walk down the steepish hill. On the left is the shop and toilets and small separate beach. Then, to the right, walking down from the parking is a little 5 min walk to the main beach. Beautiful beach. Beautiful cliff edges. Dog friendly beaches, too.
Lovely bay on the north east coast. Well known for fossils particularly ammonites best to visit at low tide to access most areas be wary of unstable cliffs lots of new rockfalls and witnessed a small rockfall during our visit. Car park at beach quite small PS4 / two hrs PS5.60/ three hrs if full quite a steep climb to top car park. Small coffee shop at beach but pricey advise visitors to take a flask. Lovely beach and views visit recommended
Nice place. Different to Staithes and Robin Hoods bay in that it's less developed as a tourist place. There's a huge bay to walk along, and a couple of pubs. We always park at the top and walk down, as it's STEEP! There's a pub near the bottom that sells good food, and a cafe/shop that sells coffee and ice-cream.
Stunning long stretch of beach in a very idyllic town. It's quiet and the water is so clear! Nearby a local shop with food an amenities.
15/4/2024-Monday. Our 1st time going to this Runswick Bay. The coast is such a breathtaking. Feels like in the European coastal line resorts. We feel Great Britain has so many lovely coastlines places of holiday. We were wondering why the British had to spend a holiday in European countriesWhere in the UK, there are so many lively places for families holiday. Highly recommended holiday place
Tiny village at foot of very steep hill. Picturesque cottages, one cafe and seaside shop, toilets. P and D car park gets busy in peak times. Very steep walk to beach. Lots of steps Inbetween houses to get to different levels. Good rock pooling at low tide.
