The golden sands of Tynemouth Long Sands stretch for half a mile from the village of Cullercoats at the Northern end to the rocky outcrops guarding King Edwards Bay at the southern end. At low tide several patches or rocks are accessible on the sands themselves. These together with the larger outcrop of rock at the Cullercoats end provide endless rock pools in which to catch crabs or spot sea anemones. The area is particularly popular with surfers.
