Sewerby Hall and Gardens to the left and the Harbour and Town to the right, Bridlington, 12th March 2025.
It was too windy to spend much time at the seafront, but a visit wouldn't have been complete without a stroll along the beach!
You can see Swanage pier in the distance.
Despite what Flickr is trying to tell you, this image was taken on Cliff Road, Falmouth; NOT Killigrew Quay. The Map is Correct, the Text is not.

Brighton Seafront 30th of October 2018. I was in Brighton overnight to watch David Byrne's American Utopia Tour and spent the bright Autumn afternoon walking the seafront and pier
Chairoplane ride on Bournemouth seafront. Being a grumpy 74 year old I don't really approve of a fairground on the seafront but it's difficult to argue that they're not really enjoying themselves as I might have done at that age.
Douglas Central Beach is a sandy beach at the southern end of Douglas Bay, alongside the town centre. Douglas is the largest and most important town on the Isle of Man.
At this end of the bay, the beach becomes completely submerged as the tide comes in. Douglas beach is backed by a promenade, which includes a walkway and a picnic area with plenty of benches offering views across the bay and to the tower of refuge, a small, Victorian tower on an island out in the bay.
A number of tourist attractions are available near the beach, including the Manx Electric Railway Museum to the north, The Sayle Gallery along the promenade, and the Manx Museum in the town.
Douglas (Manx: Doolish) is the capital and largest town of the Isle of Man, with a population of 27,938 (2011). It is located at the mouth of the River Douglas, and on a sweeping bay of two miles. The River Douglas forms part of the town's harbour and main commercial port.
Douglas was a small settlement until it grew rapidly as a result of links with the English port of Liverpool in the 18th century. Further population growth came in the following century, resulting during the 1860s in a staged transfer of the High Courts, the Lieutenant Governor's residence, and finally the seat of the legislature, Tynwald, to Douglas from the ancient capital, Castletown.
The town is the Island's main hub for business, finance, legal services, shipping, transport, shopping, and entertainment. The annual Isle of Man TT motorcycle races start and finish in Douglas.

The first thing we wanted to see when we reached Menton was the sea, and it didn't disappoint! I hope I've got the names of the beaches right - see below:
At the end of Avenue de Sospel, the main street running through the town, opposite the Casino, Casino Beach is an ideal spot for everyone to enjoy. Accessible via a ramp for people with reduced mobility, and lifeguard surveillance in high season, it is the perfect place for bathing in complete safety.
Large pebbles and a number of sandy patches provide a place to lay your towels. There is a choice of restaurants in the vicinity to satisfy foodies and lighten your beach bag! Toilet and shower facilities are available for your convenience. An area is also set aside for our four-legged friends…
Marché Beach in Menton stretches from the Jean Cocteau Museum to Menton Casino. With a lovely wide shoreline, its small pebbles will welcome bathers looking for a little more comfort.
Several access points are available for people with reduced mobility including those opposite the Hotel Royal Westminster and adjacent to the Paparazzi Bar. Families will be pleased to know that there are showers and a first aid post (in season) available. (From Menton-riviera-merveilles.co.uk)
A war-weary Tommy sits thoughtfully, head bowed, rifle in hand, as he reflects upon the sheer horror of World War One during the first minute after peace was declared in 1918.
This imposing metal sculpture, entitled 1101, owing to the fact the armistice went into effect at 11am on November 11, 1918, stands 9ft 5ins tall and weighs 1.2 tonnes.
Built out of special corteen steel, it has been installed on Seaham seafront in Country Durham to mark the centenary of the start of the Great War.
There was a wonderfully chilled out vibe on the seafront as I walked between Brighton and Hove on August Bank Holiday weekend. Walking East to West as the sun set provided some lovely warm back-lighting.

From Wikipedia : "Hove is a seaside resort in the county of East Sussex. It is a constituent part of the city of Brighton and Hove, created in 2001 from the formerly separate towns of Hove and Brighton. Originally a "small but ancient fishing village" surrounded by farms, it grew rapidly in the 19th century in response to the development of its eastern neighbour Brighton, and by the Victorian era it was a fully developed town with borough status. Neighbouring parishes such as Aldrington and Hangleton were annexed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 1997, as part of local government reform, the borough merged with Brighton to form the Borough of Brighton and Hove, and this unitary authority was granted city status in 2000."

Very similar to my previous upload so much so you could probably play 'spot the difference'...... I really not sure which one has the edge as, for example, I like the position of the guys arm in the previous shot but the slight twist in his head in this one. I guess I could photoshop the best elements of each into one new shot......
To me these early evening shots of the seafront between Brighton and Hove look like they could be Venice Beach or Santa Monica. Is that just because I've taken similar photos in those places or do they look to you that they were taken somewhere more exotic.
