Four of the best beaches within an hours drive of Manchester

When the hot weather hits it is good to know where the best beaches are. As such, we have compiled a list of our favourites for you to explore:

Formby Beach is a National Trust site and is a real dream to explore. It truly is a glorious beach with dramatic sand dunes, surrounded by sweeping coastal pinewoods. There are a series of walks along the coastline and each takes you to new parts, with a wide variety of views. We love the Formby Squirrel Walk.





Where: Formby Beach, Victoria Road, near Formby, Liverpool, L37 1LJ

There is so much to do here that you will need to keep coming back to explore all there is to offer. A firm favourite of ours is the mini train and outdoor trampolines. There playground here is great too! The main pier has fairground rides, fish and chips and donkey rides so you can truly experience the British seaside in all its glory. The kite festival in September, although incredibly busy, is well worth a visit.





Where: St Annes Beach, Beach Road, Lytham, FY8 5NS

Blackpool Tower itself has an amazing circus and Jungle Jim and the ballroom hosts a wide range of events throughout the year. Blackpool Zoo is also a great day out for your animal loving children.
