The ten best beaches in Britain
Hebridean white sand to Sussex shingle — the country's beach essentials.
Britain has 11,000 miles of coastline. These ten — chosen by aerial beauty, swimmability, ease of access and atmosphere — represent the range. Luskentyre on Harris for the white sand. Holkham in Norfolk for the dunes. Rhossili in Wales for the cliff view. Sandwood Bay in Sutherland for the remoteness. Birling Gap in Sussex for the chalk cliffs.
