Good to know when visiting Heysham Beach
Though Heysham Beach is a popular place for families, the bay is known to have occasional fast-moving tides and shifting sands. Without lifeguards on duty, it’s important to exercise caution and pay attention to the weather conditions during your visit.
Several archaeological sites are located near Heysham Beach, including the ruins of the 8th-century St Patrick’s chapel. You could also see the remains of a 17th-century farmhouse and the Rock-Cut Graves, a set of body-shaped hollows in the cliffs that were reserved for kings and religious figures. Seafaring equipment, charming seaside cottages and other heritage artefacts dot the coastline.
