    Three of the best beaches near the Lake District

    1. Arnside Beach, Arnside

    This village beach sits within an area of outstanding natural beauty, and its incredible views over Morecambe Bay with the Lakeland fells behind it might help you see why. While swimming isn't possible here due to its fast tide, you'll still find traditional seaside fun here thanks to its Victorian promenade and award-winning chippy!

    2. Bardsea Beach, Bardsea

    One of the closest beaches to Lakeland Leisure Park, Bardsea Beach is part of the Sandscale Haws Nature Reserve. Here, you can explore the sand dunes, collect seashells or enjoy a picnic (swimming is not recommended here either). You'll also find plenty of parking nearby, and in high season you can pick up an ice cream too.

    3. Earnse Bay, Walney Island

    Cross over the Jubilee Bridge beyond Barrow-in-Furness and you can reach Walney Island - a beautiful island with impressive views. Earnse Bay here boasts 11 miles of sand dunes, and is a magnet for kite-surfers and wind-surfers.
