User reviews

"This beach is simply amazing, an ideal spot for the little ones to take a dip. The vista from the boulders is absolutely stunning. However, the communal restrooms are downright revolting and repugnant. The local authorities must take heed and give this stunning beach the TLC it deserves."

Lena Jacobsen

"Kenton on Sea boasts of unparalleled beauty, with Middle Beach being a true standout. The beach is simply amazing, and during the holiday season, there's a great coffee spot to enjoy. Kenton offers a plethora of activities during the festive season, making it an excellent destination for holidaymakers. Don't miss out on the early morning and evening walks along the beachside..."
