The Denes Beach in Suffolk is a beautiful and tranquil destination for anyone looking to enjoy the natural beauty of the English coastline. During my recent visit to Southwold, I was struck by the charm and beauty of the beach, as well as the range of activities on offer. The beach is a long stretch of golden sand, bordered by dunes and lined with colorful beach huts. It is a popular spot for swimming, sunbathing, and picnicking, with plenty of space for visitors to spread out and enjoy the stunning sea views. The beach is also a great place for a leisurely walk, with miles of coastline to explore and stunning views at every turn. There are also plenty of water sports activities on offer, including surfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. The beach is also home to several cafes and ice cream stands, where visitors can grab a bite to eat or a refreshing drink. Highly recommended... Parking: Yes, Paid parking, available at site Toilets: Yes, available outside the pier

Amazing beach on the outstanding Suffolk coastline and it's a sandy beach protected by groynes in a traditional seaside town and it was high tide still plenty of room on the beach it's only a 5 mins walk from town centre and pier I visited today and went on the beach twice and had a long paddle in the sea the waves were moderate which was grest and closest toilets are next to the pier I pretty much had the whole beach to myself too and also a iconic lighthouse next to the seafront too the sun was shining whilst we were here

We loved our day out here. We parked on ferry road which got busy quickly. After a short walk over the dunes you arrive to a beautiful beach. It was clean with no litter. The tide comes in but there is plenty of beach left to enjoy. There are toilets at either end which are clean and well maintained. I loved the space available to enjoy with family and friends.

I tend to stick to the part of teh beach which is between the town and the ferry/harbour. It is beautiful sand (extremely fine), and has some lovely dunes. It tends to get somewhat busy, with a number of dog walkers, and others. But there is nearly always somewhere to park yourself, in space, and maybe fly a kite. It is lovely !

First time visiting here, large ample parking that is close to beach, there is quite a steep climb so may not be suitable for those with disabilities but there may be a place further along. Beautiful sandy beach. We came here as they are dog friendly.

Loved the Denes Beach so much! The ancient Lovecraftian horrors I found were beyond my comprehension! Would definitely let my soul be consumed by one of these cosmic deities again! Heres a photo with me and my best friend Cthulhu on the beach! :))
