🇬🇧 UK | I Could Bow to Newcastle’s Sea 🌊💙
You’ll need at least 4 hours here—strolling along the coast, you won’t be able to resist gasping at the beauty around you! 🚉 Getting There 👉 By Train: Arrive at Newcastle Railway Station, then transfer to the metro inside the station. The Central Station metro stop is right below (follow the yellow "M" signs—super easy!). 👉 Metro to Tynemouth: From Central Station, take the metro to Tynemouth (~30 min). Walk ~10 mins to King Edward’s Bay for the seaside! 👉 Metro Tickets: Zones: A (Central) → B → C (Tynemouth). Buy an A+B+C Day Saver (£5.90) for unlimited metro + ferry rides! Ferry Fun ⛴️: Hop on between North Shields and South Shields (a short river crossing—great for a scenic loop!). Pro Tip: Newcastle’s metro has Green & Yellow lines—double-check your route! 🗺️ Coastal Walk Route 👉 Weekend Market (Sat-Sun): At Tynemouth Metro Station, packed with flea markets and crafts. 🛍️ Perfect for a quick browse before hitting the beach! 👉 Must-See Spots: 1️⃣ Tynemouth Priory & Castle 🏰 A historic fortress perched on the cliffs with epic sea views. Ticket: £7.70 (online) / £9.50 (on-site). 2️⃣ King Edward’s Bay 🏖️ A cozy beach below the castle—great for swimming and sunbathing! 3️⃣ Long Sands Beach 🌊 A long, pristine stretch popular with surfers 🏄 and sunset chasers. 💭 My Thoughts: I fell in love with Tynemouth on a sunny day—it’s like a painting! Tiny boats 🚤 dot the horizon, sunbathers lounge on the sand, and seagulls glide overhead. Just sitting by the sea fills your soul with joy. #UK #Newcastle #Tynemouth #SeasideEscape #NewcastleUponTyne 🌅🇬🇧
