Frinton beach
10 Lila Renard.

Upon arriving at the beach, we noticed the water level was high. As we waited for it to recede, we enjoyed lunch in the nearby open fields. We had difficulty finding many options for fish and chips or ice cream. However, we had no trouble parking as it was both easy and free. The beach was peaceful and uncrowded with soft, sandy shores. The water was crystal clear and refreshing. Overall, we had a wonderful time. The locals were extremely friendly, especially when my wife took a tumble and many kind souls came to her aid.

West Mersea beach
10 Caregivers of Efficiency

The beach was aesthetically pleasing, but let's not get carried away with the hyperbole. It was a decent spot to catch the sunset, but don't expect to have an epiphany or anything. The tranquility was nice, but let's not pretend that the sound of waves crashing on the shore is some sort of magical elixir. Overall, it was a fine place to unwind and soak up some rays, but let's not oversell it.
