For some reason, when I first saw the picture, I thought Cleethorpes and was very surprised to see that it was. My girlfriend is good friends with someone from Cleethorpes but he generally doesn't have much good to say about the place.

Jamie: 19th Jun 2006 - 20:25 GMT

it certainly isn't a high-class holiday destination

barry: The kids love it I bet.

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: 20th Jun 2006 - 01:06 GMT

Looks a bit like Hastings, Sussex. But with less witches. And more sandy beaches. Raw sewage is about the same.

Selig: 2nd last shot is a fine one.

i love seaside. obviously, i have my preferences, but really any seaside rocks. i like the tacky stuff, i like beach, and i like sea.

we moved to cleethorpes a year ago,great place.fantastic dog walking beach,loads to do.better family place,not bombarded with amusement acardes and the like.
and in the winter it stays open!

Love the photos. Left 'home' to live in London 25 years ago but visit regularly. You captured it - warts and all. Fantastic!

jamie: lovely warty seaside. yes!

moved to wales almost 3 years ago, originally from cleethorpes and i miss it so much! i didnt realise how much i loved it till i moved away.

kathy archbold: 19th May 2007 - 16:41 GMT

you may laugh but one of the things I missed when I've lived elsewhere was the brit seaside resort...there really isn't anything else like it!

Hannah: 21st Apr 2008 - 10:39 GMT

Cleethorpes is great :) I live here, and I've been to the beach and it's an awesome view!
I came across this page whilst trying to find info on the dog walking area! None so far... :/

Nice photo's Jamie,

On the subject of the Great British Seaside, Hunstanton in Norfolk has most of the things you would expect.

A fairground and promenade

and beach huts

It did have a pier too but that was destroyed by a storm in the 1970's. The nearest is now down the coast at Cromer where you can get a spot of end-of-pier theatre.
