About this beach

Beadnell Beach is a remote bathing water on the north Northumberland coast. Measuring three kilometres in length with the Environment Agency sampling point to the north end of the bay, close to the village of Beadnell. The gently sloping sandy beach can result in a long distance to the sea at low tide. A stream called the Long Nanny crosses the bay to the south of the Environment Agency's designated sampling point.
