Fishing
The northern Seaton Carew sands share the resort's clean-ground species mix: codling and whiting in colder months, flounder through much of the year and possible bass when the water is warmer. The exact north-beach banks and gullies move, so low-water reconnaissance is more useful than fixed distance claims.
Species reported: Codling, Whiting, Flounder, Bass
