Run this by me again..... Jurassic coast is Dorset.... Whitby is N Yorks!
My fave has to be good old Blackpool if you want traditional resort.
Otherwise I like places like Looe and other smaller Cornish resorts. |

Goodness, that takes me back.
My extended family all live in Sheffield, and when I was around two or three, my favourite auntie and uncle would randomly take me and their four kids - all between 15 and eight years older than me - for a day trip there. |

I used to go to Brighton as a kid, and loved it. We went a couple of years ago and we were shocked at how crappy it has become. There was scaffolding everywhere and nobody working on it, loads of different kinds of waste bins all over the pavements and the city centre seems to be full of homeless beggars and nutcases (apologies to the mentally ill). It all looked tired and a bit sad. |

Scarborough for fond childhood memories, we went most years. I went last year for a day first time in 20 years and still liked it. Tenby is the one I like these days though, walled town,good beach, good restaurants and pubs. |

I love Weymouth and Tenby.
Went to Brighton for the first time last October and was really disappointed, I'd always wanted to go and just did nothing for me.
Just booked to go to Cornwall for the first time in August, so really looking forward to exploring there.

That's a common denominator in most of the larger seaside towns I think |

Not been to the coast in years but probably Sutton on Sea. Decent beach and nice and quiet. |

One certainly can't get much further from the coast than here.  |

Exmouth Beach is quite a nice beach as its only a couple miles long and close to town. Bournemouth is clean beach. But you can't beat the Cornish coast. |

Our's was probably Newquay, mostly for the sheer number of activities and watersports you could try
And the town centre can be quite lively too lol |

It's 7 plus on the train but if you take plenty of sarnies and coffee it's a good way to relax and watch the world go by. Especially when you reach the south coast. |

Yeah, I knew the Gower well as I'm from one of the towns in Wales mentioned regularly in this thread. Hadn't been to Rhosilli in years.
I read all all this stuff about it being a top 10/top 50 beach in world. I thought it was over the top, but I was genuinely bowled over. Gorgeous spot.

"I love Whitby but as so many others do it can get quite cramped on occasion.
For me, I'd have to say South Wales Pembrokeshire area.....lots of tiny little villages on the coast....very idyllic and very underrated "
Shhhhh - don't tell people. Every now and then there's a Sunday Supplement or website saying "Pembrokeshire is the new Cornwall".
Place gets overrun with well-meaning, but annoyingly "perfect" families in their 4x4s. They go banging on about how they've "discovered" it, as if they were some Victorian explorer finding a new tribe in the depths of the Andes.
I do love them (and their endless quest for cliff-top, alfresco vegan cafeshacks) really.

I love Tenby, Kidwelly and Pembrey. I tend to find Cornwall overated sometimes, I guess you become immune to the beauty of where you live. |
