Beaches and Coastline

Come and explore Wyre's picturesque coastline with sand and shale beaches located approximately 4 miles north of Blackpool at traditional seaside resort of Cleveleys. The beach front here is a vast expanse of sea and sand, backed by an award winning promenade, Jubilee Gardens playground, cinema and eateries.

Further on your journey along the promenade you pass Rossall and Rossall Tower with its glorious views of Morecambe Bay and the Irish Sea onto Fleetwood, a charming Victorian seaside town in Lancashire with a rich social history and fishing industry heritage. 

The beach in Fleetwood is called Marine Beach and you will find a fine stretch of sand here as well as pretty sand dunes.
