Coastal saltmarsh, mudflats, and shingle/shell beach. The main walking is often along the raised sea wall path, which is typically grassy, flat, and well-defined but can be uneven and exposed. Access to the beach itself from the sea wall can be via steps or slopes. The beach is a mix of shingle, shells, and sand, especially at lower tides. Can be very muddy on the saltmarsh/mudflat edges – **it is crucial to stay off dangerous mudflats.**
