I was only using Tenby as an example of a smaller, less commercial seaside town. I wasn’t saying it was the best or without fault
Do you go to the seaside any more?

It's a cracking beach.
I'm there next week for a golf trip to Ganton followed by a curry
As part of our Cornwall break we decide to go to:
Padstow - awful place
Newquay - will give margate a good run for its money for being a dive
Perranporth - the best of the 3 but still won’t be going back
Our favourites are Looe, polperro and mevagissy

Am heading to Norman's bay very early friday morning to watch the sun come up and have a cooked breakfast on the beach before it gets too bloody hot .I live at the seaside (not far from Cooden Beach)... if you think its dark, dreary, expensive.... then I suggest you're going to the wrong places
Depending on the tide it will decide whether or not we go paddling.

Yep, we have a beach hut at Sandbanks and have for years, spent most of the wekend there and my wife and kids will liive down there this summer as usual. It's an amazing place. As a local it's £100 for a yearly parking ticket and our hut is between bournemouth pier and the Poole end so it's quieter. What's not to like, amazing sand, beautiful water, great amenties and a total relaxation.

It's the better of the 2 curry houses. The Bombay Johl is my go-to.

Property prices, a bungalow went for £13.500,000.
One of the most expensive places to live in the whole world.
The Sandbanks ferry might be out of service.
Getting through the traffic out of Bournemouth in the other direction could take well over an hour.
Not much in the way of local shops.
Go into Bournemouth there could be half a million people on the sea front.
Just spent 6 hrs in Looe and had a great boat trip out to Looe island and round to polperro.
Can’t remember ever spending more than an hour at places like whitstable
Bought more fish for tea as well

I was a cladder once and put the cladding on the fish market in Looe.

Born and bred in Ilfracombe just an unbelievably great place to grow up by the sea.
Off to Woolacombe and Morthoe at the end of this month,fabulous beaches and walks.
Live in Taunton now and really miss the sea.

Crikey, someone got out of bed the wrong side today!
Padstow isn't awful, it's just very busy. If you can get there before the crowds then you can enjoy it.

Or spend the day at nearby Constantine Beach then hit Padstein for fish n chips and a couple of St Austell Tributes in the evening.

Just because the town is grotty the beach can still be nice, Jaywick is a much maligned hell hole but a short walk and it’s beach is lovely with crystal blue water and soft yellow sand. It’s always quiet and you can take the dog. Had many a good day there as a kid and with my kids… not been for a few years but feel a bit nostalgic for it!
