The more peaceful of the two bays, North Bay promenade spans from the headland to the Sealife Centre. Lined with pretty and well maintained beach huts (which can be hired from the main offices in the large modern building) the promenade makes a pleasant stroll even on the busier days.

A beautifully designed park with some hidden gems. You can take a dragon themed paddle boat around the lake, walk up to the oriental garden at the top of the island or explore the peaceful glen areas. The park is a 20 minute walk from our house and can be part of your route to North Bay.
