Camden and its attractions for beach lovers
While Camden itself is renowned for its vibrant markets and eclectic culture, it is not known for its beach proximity as it lies inland. However, adventurous travellers can explore nearby spots that offer sandy escapes within a short journey. Head to the stunning Hampstead Heath, where you can enjoy a dip in the historic ponds surrounded by lush greenery, perfect for a family picnic after a day of swimming. A quick train ride will take you to the picturesque shores of the Thames at Richmond, where you can enjoy riverside walks, bike rides, and the chance to rent a kayak for a day on the water. Alternatively, venture to the charming seaside town of Brighton, just an hour away, for its iconic pebble beach, vibrant pier, and an array of family-friendly attractions such as the Sea Life Centre. Back in Camden, staying at hotels like the stylish Crowne Plaza allows families to unwind after a day of adventures, featuring premium rooms with modern amenities and easy access to Camden Market’s culinary delights. The attentive staff are keen to assist with travel arrangements, ensuring your stay is both comfortable and memorable, making it an excellent base for your explorations.
