Sandy Toes & Seaside Clothes: Best UK Beaches for Family Adventures
Sunshine, salty breezes and sandy toes — it’s what family memories are made of! 🌞
At Lilly + Sid, we believe the best days start with a beach trip (and the right outfits!). Here’s our guide to the best UK beaches for family days out — plus Sid’s top tips and the perfect pieces to pack!
Bournemouth Beach, Dorset
With miles of golden sand and shallow, splash-friendly waters, Bournemouth Beach is a family favourite. There's even a land train and an ice cream on every corner — what's not to love?
Perfect Outfit:
Dress them for seaside fun in our Seaside Stripe Organic Romper — super soft, super stripey, and perfect for paddling.
Sid Says:
"Pack a big towel for everyone — it doubles as a picnic blanket for sandy snack time!"
Porthcurno Beach, Cornwall
Tucked away between dramatic cliffs, Porthcurno Beach feels like a secret tropical hideaway. Calm, clear waters make it perfect for little splashers and sandcastle architects.
Perfect Outfit:
Let your little explorer twirl along the tide line in our Seashell Print Organic Dress — lightweight, breezy and beach-day ready.
Sid Says:
"Always bring a bucket — not just for sandcastles, but for collecting seashells too!"
West Wittering Beach, West Sussex
Looking for soft sands and safe paddling? West Wittering is a sun-soaked dream with wide beaches, gentle waves, and grassy dunes perfect for running races.
Perfect Outfit:
Get splash-ready with our Dino Surf Organic Swim Shorts — bold, bright and brilliant for water babies!
Sid Says:
"Bring extra clothes — soggy bottoms after paddling are guaranteed (and part of the fun!)"
Luskentyre Beach, Isle of Harris, Scotland
Luskentyre Beach feels like a real adventure — vast stretches of white sand, rolling dunes, and the freshest air you’ll ever breathe. Perfect for kite flying and wild exploring!
Perfect Outfit:
Layer up with our Organic Cotton Sweatshirt — cosy, comfy, and perfect for breezy beach days and sunset strolls.
Sid Says:
"Pack a kite — big beaches mean big fun when the wind picks up!"
