Danes Dyke Beach

A sheltered chalk and shingle cove at the foot of the wooded ravine, reached by a stepped path of about half a mile down from the reserve car park. The council's dog PSPO names only Bridlington North, Bridlington South, Hornsea and Withernsea, so there is no seasonal ban here and no lead requirement in law at any time of year. The reserve's own code of conduct asks that dogs are kept under close control and picked up after, which in practice means a lead on the woodland path and freedom on the shingle. There is no lifeguard, the cove cuts off on a big tide, and the beck runs out across the stones so there is fresh water to drink. Pay and display parking for about 80 cars at the top, with toilets open all year and a summer kiosk.
