Cleethorpes, England
Costa Del Humberside
"Where the North Sea meets your knees (briefly, in July)"
Official Coat of Arms
A shield depicting a lone donkey trudging across an endless expanse of exposed sand towards a distant, barely visible sea, flanked by two amusement arcade fruit machines mid-jackpot. The crest bears a seagull clutching a chip in one talon, motto beneath reading 'The Sea Will Return (Eventually)'.
TripAdvisor Review
★★★☆☆ 3/5
"Took the family for a day out and the tide was so far away we needed a packed lunch just to reach the water. The donkeys on the beach seemed more enthusiastic about life than most of the arcade staff on the front. Meridian Point has definitely seen better decades but the fish and chips were genuinely excellent, so three stars. Would return, ideally with a bike for the sand-trek."— Barry Fenwick, Scunthorpe
Property Listing
Charming coastal residence offering breathtaking, ever-changing sea views — sometimes sea, sometimes several hundred acres of glistening mudflat, nature's own art installation! Minutes from the vibrant promenade, award-winning fish and chips, and a beach so vast you'll get your steps in before you even reach the water.
Twinned With
Skegness — Both towns share a fierce rivalry over who has the bigger beach, the tackier arcade, and the more distant tide.
Supporting Evidence
Cleethorpes has one of the flattest, longest tidal ranges in the UK, meaning at low tide the sea can retreat over a mile out, leaving visitors staring at damp sand where they expected waves.
