Essex Sunshine Coast

---------------------------------------------------

If you are in search of the traditional pleasures of the seaside with a modern twist - the Essex Sunshine Coast (part of the Tendring holiday peninsula) is the perfect location. From award-winning beaches and unspoilt coastlines, to picturesque villages and the historic port of Harwich.

---------------------------------------------------

Clacton-on-Sea

The capital of the 'Essex Sunshine Coast', Clacton is a popular seaside town with tree-lined streets, sand/shingle beaches (Blue Flag and Quality Coast Awards) and beautiful clifftop gardens. The
fun-packed 19th C. pier offers fairground rides and sea fishing. Try out a range of watersports, or enjoy an evening out at one of the two theatres. The town centre has a range of shops, restaurants, pubs and clubs. Go bargain hunting at the Clacton Factory Outlet.

Frinton-on-Sea

With a reputation as an exclusive resort, Frinton retains an atmosphere of the 1920/30's. Tree-lined avenues sweep down to the elegant Esplanade and cliff-top greensward, with its colourful
Victorian-style beach huts. The sandy beach (Quality Coast Award) is quiet and secluded. Play a game of golf or tennis, followed by a cream tea.

The pier is the second longest in England, offering fairground rides, ten pin bowling and sea angling.
