Terrain:

Terrain: A vast, open coastal landscape. The walk takes place primarily on wide, sandy beach and a firm promenade. The sand can be soft near the dunes but becomes firmer closer to the water at low tide. The promenade offers a smooth, accessible surface. The terrain is generally flat. Expect the sand to be wet near the water's edge, and very windy conditions are common. Sturdy, comfortable walking shoes are recommended, and waterproof footwear is ideal if you plan to walk closer to the water.

Accessibility: The promenade offers excellent accessibility for pushchairs and wheelchairs. Access onto the sand from the promenade usually involves gentle slopes or ramps, but walking on soft sand can be challenging for some.

Toilets, Cafe

Dog Notes:

Dog-Friendliness: Sandylands Beach offers a wonderfully expansive and invigorating walk for dogs, providing huge open spaces and the joy of the seaside! However, it is absolutely crucial to be highly mindful of seasonal dog restrictions on the beach itself, and the unique, severe dangers of Morecambe Bay's tides and quicksand.

Sandylands Promenade and Beach in Lancashire are popular for dog walking. Dogs should be kept on leads on the busy promenade, especially when crowded with pedestrians and cyclists. The beach often has seasonal dog restrictions on certain main bathing areas (typically May to September – always check local council signage for current rules and zoned areas). Outside of restricted zones/times, the beach offers good space for dogs to run. Please clean up after your dog; bins are widely available along the promenade. This Lancashire location is good for on-lead prom walks and beach fun where permitted.
