Kilnsea Beach

Visit Kilnsea Beach

Kilsea beach is at the tip of the Spurn Peninsula in Holderness. A rural and picturesque coastal destination located in East Yorkshire. Known for its natural beauty, unspoiled sandy shores, Kilnsea Beach features a mix of sandy and pebbly stretches, with expansive views of the North Sea.

The beach and surrounding areas are popular with birdwatchers due to the diverse avian population, especially during migration seasons. The nearby Spurn Bird Observatory attracts many visitors interested in observing various bird species.

The area has historical importance, including the acoustic mirror built during World War I, which served as an early warning device. The remnants of this structure are a point of interest for visitors.

There is a small car park near the beach, and public toilets are available. However, visitors should note that the beach can be accessed via a step down from the dunes, which may not be suitable for everyone.
