Lovely tea room across the road, dog friendly and has toilets. Beach is gorgeous and if the tide's out you get a lovely stretch of sand and can walk for miles and miles. Great spot for fossil hunting. Stay away from the cliffs though, they are unstable particularly after wet weather. · via Google [Andrew Lowe](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104275629807353163790/reviews) ★★★★★ Easy parking, and a wander down the beach, be aware of tide times as the beach has cliffs and you can become trapped, very easily !! I had blue skies, and you are warned about post war munitions that will be on the beach as it was used as a MOD range way back ! A great few hours exploring, look out for fossils too !! · via Google [kevin Cox](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/110756749448125523070/reviews) ★★★★★ 3 miles along beach to hornsea, then a spot of lunch at the cafe on longbeach caravan park good menu and service. · via Google [johnathan yearsley](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/101555209121606139890/reviews) ★★★★★ A great beach with something for every beach lover. There are sections of soft sand and section of rocks and pebbles, so you can choose to just sit and watch the world go buy or hunt for one of the fossils found here. Depending on which way you walk at the entrance there are some small rock pools (although they are a distance). · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x4878a5b75397f0c1:0x32f8c70fed16eaf9!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) Visitors say this beach is excellent for dog walking, offering a long, spacious stretch of sand and pebbles, and is a great spot for fossil hunting.
