Create an itinerary including Seascale Beach
Boasting clean sand and shingle, Seascale Beach allows plenty of space for walking, swimming, picnicking, beach combing, and other seaside activities. Located near the attractive village of the same name that retains its old Victorian charm, the beach makes a good starting point for inland walks. A restored wooden jetty remains quite popular with sea anglers and water sports enthusiasts. On clear day, the views over the Irish Sea extend as far as the hills of Galloway and the Isle of Man. Nearby attractions include two stone circles that bear evidence of Norse and Roman settlements.

  • Beautiful beach! Clean, tidy, and well looked after. When the tide is out there are miles of vast golden sands and lots of little crabbing pools and rocky areas to shell and crab. Lovely place to walk your dogs too! It's one of the nicest beaches I've seen in England :)
  • Lovely beach, locals were very friendly, toilets nearby (which are free and clean!) Dogs allowed on the beach The Isle of Man can be seen from the beach and on a clear day so can Scotland. Would recommend and would return.
  • Seascale beach is very long but with rocks and if you want to have a walk you need to know the timetavle for the tides beacuse you can be taken away by the water . The car park next to the beach is free so you can bring you dog and enjoy the view.
  • The car park is free, the play park is free, the beach is free, the sea is free, the electricity from Sellafield is free, the whole world is free. Wild, windswept and unkempt, but that's enough about your hair after an hour on the beach!!! Just go and enjoy yourselves. It won't cost anything and you might be thrown back to when life was simple and carefree. Disclaimer: not all the above is true!!!
  • Beautiful beach. Great for families & dogs. Ice cream shop and play park for the kids nearby. It has plenty of free parking and even has toilets.
