Druridge bay off the northumberland coast is a local beuty spot, can be accessed by the a1 or the a19, if you head for the a19 head strate up towards newbiggen roundabout, keep going you will come to lynemouth turn right and follow the road round you will pass cresswell carovan park there are a few places where you can call in but the very north end of the beach is the best spot, please be aware that there is a ban next to the visitors centre access point to the beach, its 200 yards either side of the steps, but all clear for the north end
to access the north end of the beach you need to head for the A1068 and turn right just before you get to radcliff

The best wind dierection to catch the north end on is a SE wind, but will work from Easterly round to a Southerly, you will also catch it from a Northerly round to a Westerly, The south end of the beach is not allowed

Just thought I'd add another picture of druridge. This is about 1mile north of Cresswell on new years day with 2" snow on the sand. I was visiting my family for New year, this session got rid of the hangover nicely.

Heres some more nice shots of druridge which is well worth the trip. With a nice low tide its big enough to work in just about any direction think this day was a Southerly.
