Nice beach. Something for everyone.

I remember visiting houses like that out west, usa!
you're right Peps.. there is something for most people at that beach.. and the surrounding areas.. it's predominately a family area...

Not my choice of beach. The last time I went there I took my daughter age 14, ..that was over 30 years ago... ..but I wasn't going to turn down a nice trip from my friend.... but I think that will be the last time I go there tbh.. not really keen on it myself..

Yes, I was surprised at how lacking in sand Brighton UK was! All stones where I was!
Brighton is all pebbles.. which is surprising because part of it is a Nudist beach... ( that's in East Sussex)

I was at Clacton-on-sea today.. ( Essex) both places are in the South east .. the other side of London from me.. for those who don't know..
 
Nice pictures, as always, thanks!

Why would the sand be white? Sand where I am is the same colour as the above beach. Just curious...
The color of beached depends on the minerals the sand is made of. North Florida (Gulf side) has very white beaches because they are well washed quartz. In some volcanic areas beaches are black. I like any beach, color is of little importance!
 
Very noticeable that hardly anyone is wearing a hat in the extreme heat
tbf..it was quite breezy...very hard to keep a hat on in the strong breeze right at the beach or on the Pier...and it was only in the 70's,,, not like here which was in the 90's.. and I go nowhere without my hat when we have strong sun....
