Being a girl and going for my first ever climb i was quite nervous. I was greeted by Charlotte who took me through the whole process and eased my nerves. I couldn’t recommend Charlotte more. She gave me a great first climbing experience and I can’t wait to come back and climb with her again.

We consider ourselves extremely lucky to live near such a lovely coastline and Indeed being able to walk here during lockdown kept us sane. We are particular fans of the coast around seaham - Whether you visit noses’s point, vane tempest or seaham hall the scenery is stunning! We also love to look for sea glass too Have travelled the world and would struggle to name a more beautiful coastline Unlike other coastal areas parking is free too and the beaches are rarely crowded.

7. Seaham Beach

Reviewed By MeganL1820 - Anchorage, United States
We spent a week in Seaham for the seaglass. This beach is rocky, and there are areas of runoff, so rain boots or something waterproof is recommended. It's best to head out two hours before low tide, so you can be there as the ocean deposits its treasure. Be sure to keep track of the tide though, as some areas of the beach get completely covered at high tide. It's breezy, so make sure you dress in layers.
8. Wear Canoes
Canoeing is a great low impact, environmentally friendly way to explore County Durham’s beautiful and historic countryside. The River Wear is one of the longest rivers in the area, running through Bishop Auckland, Durham, Chester le Street and Sunderland. Every year, more and more people are trying this fun, adventurous sport. It is great for complete beginners...no experience necessary!
