As you round the corner from Harbour Road you come into Beadnell (or Benthall) Bay and Harbour. The contrast is striking. The harbour wall marks the change from rocks to beach. You find youself in a wide sweeping sandy bay with sand dunes leading to the path to the village, cafes and shops. See map below.
You can see Dunstanburgh Castle in the distance and can walk for miles along the beach at low tide. The small harbour seems to be used for private boats and can only be used at high tide.
A few photogaphs
We had one quite windy day when we were there and I took the video below on the harbour wall.
We had a really lovely time in Beadnell and area. I love that coast and would highly recommend staying there. The next few posts will be of some of the other places in the area we went to.
