Five English Seaside Towns Worth Visiting, From Brighton to Bamburgh

England’s coastline offers much more than piers and fish and chips. From sandy beaches and historic harbours to cliffside walks and independent cafés, there are seaside towns for every kind of traveller. Bournemouth is ideal for a classic beach break, with a long promenade, gardens and family-friendly attractions. Whitby combines coastal scenery with maritime history, a working harbour and the striking ruins of Whitby Abbey. For art, beaches and Cornish charm, St Ives is a popular choice, although it is quieter outside the summer peak. Brighton offers a livelier city-meets-seaside experience, with shops, restaurants, culture and nightlife. For a slower escape, Bamburgh stands out for its wide beach, castle views and dramatic Northumberland scenery. The best option depends on whether you want activity, history, art or a peaceful coastal retreat.
