About This Place

Set on the southern edge of Druridge Bay is Cresswell beach. The sandy beach here is one of the best on the Northumberland coast. The gently sloping sand is backed by extensive sand dunes and can seem to go on forever at low tide. At this state of tide there are also a few rocky patches are exposed - these offer some great rockpooling. --> The beach at Cresswell never really gets busy and is largely unspoilt. Except for the height of the summer there is a fair chance you will only see the occasional dog walker.

💡 Our Take

Cresswell Beach in Northumberland is a hidden gem for dog lovers, allowing pups to frolic freely year-round on its golden sands. It's the ideal spot for big dogs needing room to roam and anxious dogs seeking quiet, as the beach is often less crowded than others. While lavish facilities are scarce, ample parking is available, and the nearby village provides essentials. Swim safety is generally good, but always keep an eye on tides. For a successful day out, pack water and snacks for both you and your furry companion. DogParkUK highly recommends this picturesque spot for a tail-wagging adventure.
