Details
Fraisthorpe is a flat, sandy beach in the East Riding area of Yorkshire. It forms part of Bridlington Bay, a sandy stretch of coastline that stretches on for many miles southwards, down to the Humber Estuary. This makes the beach perfect for walking, with dogs allowed all year round. It is also a good beach for horse riding, particularly in the quieter months of the year.
In summer, Fraisthorpe is a popular spot for taking a dip in the North Sea, although there is no lifeguard service. It is also a popular beach for kite-surfing thanks to the wide, relatively flat expanse of sand.
The beach is backed by low clay cliffs and as you head north of the beach there are some spectacular views and cliff-top scenery.
There is pay-for parking available at Auburn Farm, very slightly raised from the level of the beach.

We used to live nearby and took this beach for granted… now we’ve moved to the other side of the country we still try and plan a visit here each year, it’s so worth it. Big, sandy beach, not usually too busy and dog friendly all year round, you can walk for miles.

You do need to pay for parking here, although it’s worth it.
