Located near Bembridge, Seagrove Bay is on the northeast coast of the Isle of Wight. Facing eastwards into the English Channel it is fairly sheltered from both the wind and waves. Although the beach is pebbly near the shore, at low tide it has plenty of sand which is gently sloping and is ideal for watersports, sandcastles, sunbathing and beach activities. The bay stretches for about 1km (0.6 mile) from Nettlestone Point to Horestone Point and there’s a wooden boardwalk providing access to the seawall. Seagrove Bay has a Blue Flag award - a guarantee of great water quality and plenty of family-friendly facilities. Perhaps the only negative point about Seagrove is that at high tide, there beach all but disappears as the water comes up to the seawall marking the high water mark. It’s advisable to check the tide times before visiting. There’s a small car park nearby and a lane leading down to the beach which has a slipway for boats. You can also park at Seaview and walk around the coast to reach Seagrove Bay. Facilities include toilets. Seagrove is home to a couple of fairly exclusive hotels and it is not unknown to spot the occasional celebrity here.

Just a five minute walk from the flat. The beach is gently sloping and has clear waters. Seagrove Bay sits between Springvale Beach and Priory Bay, the beach is a gently sloping expanse of golden sands and has clear waters making it popular for a whole range of beach activities and water sports. There is a slipway running down into the sea which is a regular launching platform for boats. The beach itself disappears at high tide, so make sure you check the tide times beforehand. When the tide is fully out it reveals a sandbar which helps make the water nearest the beach really calm and warm. There are toilet facilities at the bottom of the lane which leads down to the beach. Parking at the back of the beach is limited so you are best advised to park in Seaview and walk round to the beach.
