Winterton Beach boasts vast golden sand and clean and gentle sea. It’s backed by rolling dunes which have been designated as a national nature reserve. The stretch of sand between the dunes and the sea gives a lovely uncrowded and open atmosphere. If you’re lucky, you might even see seals on this beach.

The dunes keep collapsing during storms, so please keep to known footpaths to help protect the dune system habitat. Also, if you visit between October and March, please keep your dogs on leads and seals may be on the beach giving birth/raising their pups.
