Top seaside towns in the United Kingdom

If you’re a fan of a holiday by the sea, the United Kingdom has a plethora of coastal towns that are well-worth checking out.

Whether you’re looking for a weekend away or a fully-fledged vacation, the country has something to suit every taste. Read on as we look at the top seaside towns in the UK.

Blackpool shaking off tacky image

Blackpool is the UK’s most famous seaside resort, with its history as a travel destination dating back to the 18th century.

However, it suffered a steady decline in visitors from the 1960s onwards, largely due to the growth of the foreign package holiday industry.

The town subsequently developed something of a tacky reputation, often attracting stag and hen parties for rowdy weekends away.

Significant investment in the town has sparked a resurgence in its fortunes, helping to re-establish it at the forefront of seaside resorts in the UK.

Whether you fancy playing up your lottery bonus code winnings at a stylish casino or enjoying the simplicity of a day at the beach, Blackpool is a great place for people of all ages.

Culture and more in sunny Penzance

With its mix of history and modern, Penzance provides visitors with one of the most diverse travel experiences in the UK.

There are plenty of ancient monuments and historic sites to visit, while the town’s stunning beaches will appeal to people who prefer a more relaxed time.

The coastline boasts plenty of coves and caves, with most having a link to the area’s famed history of smugglers.

Water sports fans will in their element around Penzance, with the area providing excellent opportunities or surfing, sailing and windsurfing.

With great shopping, a superb choice of restaurants and brilliant bars, Penzance is the perfect place to enjoy a seaside holiday.

Southend-on-Sea still wowing visitors

Boasting seven miles of coastline, Southend-On-Sea originally built its reputation on traditional seaside holidays.

Like Blackpool, the town suffered a huge decline in popularity towards the back end of the 20th century, but regeneration projects have breathed new life into the tourism industry there.

With award-winning beaches, a world famous pier featuring a mile long railway and a fun park with superb rides and rollercoasters, the town remains a great family destination.

Southend-on-Sea also has a burgeoning cultural scene, with a range of art galleries, museums and historic houses bringing a touch of class to the town.

Events, shows, live music and top class restaurants keep things buzzing at night, ensuring that you can keep yourself busy throughout your stay.
