This area is the heart of Whitley Bay's seaside appeal, with hotels and guesthouses directly overlooking the North Sea. You're just a stone's throw from the beach, making it incredibly convenient for morning strolls or a quick dip.

Couples looking for a relaxing coastal break will find this area ideal.

There are also several nice restaurants and cafes dotted along the promenade for evening meals.

Families visiting with children will also appreciate the convenience of staying right by the beach. It means less travel time to get to the sand and sea, and many activities like rock pooling and building sandcastles are right on your doorstep.
