With a stunning promenade providing beautiful views of the bay, there are also several art installations and games for the whole family to enjoy. Down on the sand and shingles is the perfect place to spend the day having a picnic or relaxing in the sun, and when the tide is low, the shore stretches very far out, but be cautious as you don&#8217;t want to go walking on the quicksand! Along the beach, there is plenty to see, including where the bay curves around into a stone cove, as well as plenty of sailboats in the water at the northern end of the beach. There is also plenty of entertainment along the promenade, including many popular amusement centres packed with arcade games and slot machines galore. Why not stop off for ice cream or refreshments as well at one of the nearby caf\u00e9s and restaurants, bringing an end to an amazing day out.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Stay nearby<\/h4>\n<div class=\"sdstaynearby\">\n<div class=\"sdcol2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/hotels\/516\/Morecambe-hotel?sb=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius: 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/media.travelodge.co.uk\/image\/upload\/v1675260555\/ecrm\/hotels-digi\/GB0366.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"sdcol2 sdlast\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/hotels\/142\/Lancaster-M6-hotel?sb=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius: 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/media.travelodge.co.uk\/image\/upload\/v1675260555\/ecrm\/hotels-digi\/GB0211.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"btn btn-blue wpel-icon-right\" href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/search\/results?location=Morecambe&amp;sb=1\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">Search deals<span class=\"wpel-icon wpel-image wpel-icon-6\"><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"465\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-34355\" src=\"https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-700x465.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-700x465.jpg 700w, https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-250x166.jpg 250w, https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-480x319.jpg 480w, https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes-960x637.jpg 960w, https:\/\/travelodgeblog.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/St-Anne_s-Beach-Lytham-St-Annes.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitstannes.info\/about\/seafront\/st-annes-seafront-and-beach\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\" class=\"wpel-icon-right\">St Anne&#8217;s Beach<span class=\"wpel-icon wpel-image wpel-icon-6\"><\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Just south of the hugely popular Blackpool Beach lies St Anne&#8217;s Beach, a quaint but bustling seaside resort town with a gorgeous beach that is often overlooked. With miles of open public land to explore, it&#8217;s a naturally beautiful beach covered in promenade gardens, waterfalls and even ducks. Famous for its kite flying competitions and ideal for dog walking, this beach must be on your list this summer if you&#8217;re visiting with the family. Why not try out their St Anne&#8217;s Train, a miniature train that takes you around the island and straight to the seafront. If you&#8217;re looking for refreshments, why not take a walk up the promenade to the pier, where many caf\u00e9s serving ice cream and refreshments sit.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Stay nearby<\/h4>\n<div class=\"sdstaynearby\">\n<div class=\"sdcol2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/hotels\/540\/Lytham-St-Annes-hotel?sb=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius: 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/media.travelodge.co.uk\/image\/upload\/v1675260555\/ecrm\/hotels-digi\/GB0251.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"sdcol2 sdlast\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/hotels\/382\/Blackpool-South-Promenade-hotel?sb=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-radius: 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/media.travelodge.co.uk\/image\/upload\/v1675260555\/ecrm\/hotels-digi\/GB0239.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"btn btn-blue wpel-icon-right\" href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/search\/results?location=St%20Annes&amp;sb=1\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">Search deals<span class=\"wpel-icon wpel-image wpel-icon-6\"><\/span><\/a><\/div><div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"btn btn-black\" style=\"color: #000 !important; font-size: 22px !important;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.travelodge.co.uk\/blog\/short-breaks\/beach-breaks\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"> More beach breaks in the UK <\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Lancashire coastline is a real crowd-pleaser.
