Rhyl Beach, at the seaside resort of Rhyl on the north-east coast of Wales, has sand stretching about six miles along the coast to Prestatyn. There is safe bathing off most of the length of Rhyl Beach and there is a lifeguard service to guide you to the best places.
It has an amazing cycle path with run all the way to Bangor and beyond.

Nice route but the flood defense work means lots of diversions at the moment
