What beaches are there in london?

  • i live in Whitton near richmond, and i never go to beaches! me and my friends are really bored and we cant find any beaches near us.. does anyone know a good place to go to?

  • Answer:

    what beaches are there in London? Thorney Bay Beach is the nearest 11 miles away it is sandy but can get muddy. Leigh Bell Wharf is 14 miles away an ideal sand beach Brightlingsea Beach is 30 miles away and you can swim, Sailing, Jet-skiing and there is a small paddling pool there. Shoebury Common Beach 19 miles and you can surf there Whitstable West Beach is 29 miles and is a shingle beach and an ideal place to fly a kite. Brighton Beach is 32 miles an ideal place for a BBQ and Barbeque food is the best and there is a Family entertainment centre near by and backed by a seaside town. I have included a website that I use hope this helps.

When I lived in London, I was shocked by the way they all lie about beaches. Brighton is not a beach in my meaning of the word. To me a beach is sandy. Brighton beach is nasty hard little (and big) stones. I know that the OED says that it is a beach but it's a pebbly beach , not a sandy one. The nearest real beaches are down on the coast to the east of Rye, in Kent. p.s. To me a beach is at a sandy place where the sea water is safe to drink. Not too much to ask.

Brighton! Seriously love that place. :) And they have a really cool shopping center. :) ______________________________________... Yes brigthon is rocky but it's really fun. i not then come on over to california. most likley won't find one in london or near london with "fresh drinking water". first of all no beach has fresh water. everyone knows that (person below me).
