Good evening. This pic popped up a few days ago, during the hot spell. It is a well known seaside resort in East Yorkshire. I have been there, it is quite nice, out of season. At Filey when the tide comes in the beach becomes smaller and smaller.
Beaches are usually enjoyed by families with children, and dogs. Dipping your toes in the sea, building sandcastles, and sitting in a deckchair enjoying an ice cream.
Finding a beach this packed would send this 76 year old spinster running for the hills. This is my idea of hell.
Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip. ilona
That looks nightmarish to me too. The beaches near my home get lots of tourists but not that crazy many. I would keep well away. I prefer an empty beach.
ReplyDeleteI prefer empty everything, ha ha. Beaches, towns, fields, mountains, shopping centres, buses and trains.
DeleteI live in Berwick upon Tweed, which is an old fashioned town, with a beautiful beach with hardly any people most of the time. And never gets busy, even in school holidays. That picture is my idea of hell also. Ann T
ReplyDeleteThere are always quieter beaches to be found if you look. No need to join the throngs and get squashed into a small space with hundreds of other bodies.
DeleteDefinitely my idea of hell. I like isolated places not crowds of people.
ReplyDeleteCruising on a canal would be very nice.
DeleteNo, no, no, absolutely not, I could not relax with the water in front, hillside in the back, and all of those people! I have been on crowded beaches before, Clearwater on the Gulf (of America, ha) in Florida, but there's not that suffocating hill in the back! Lake Ontario beaches can get a little bit too peopled, but nothing like that. It's like what nightmares are made of!
ReplyDeleteThe word claustrophobia comes to mind. I would feel trapped.
DeleteToo many people, noise, kids, germs, music and no real shade. One look at that and I would be off!!
