Recent surveys have claimed 80 per cent of British families will enjoy a staycation break at some point this year - exploring the natural beauty of the British Isles. Now a UK expert has rounded up some of England's best secluded beaches.

Laura Miller, group head of marketing at , explained how as summer is now here, many of England's most popular and iconic beaches are expected to see a significant increase in visitors.

But she stressed there are still many tranquil coastal spots perfect for a peaceful day trip or short getaway - from Cornwall to Yorkshire - with stunning hidden beaches still untouched by the masses.

Now she rounds up some of England's best secluded beaches for Daily Express readers:

1 - Ringstead Bay, Dorset

"Weymouth Beach in Dorset is one of the most popular beaches in the UK, welcoming more than 3.7 million visitors every year, according to Weymouth Council. Its sandy shore, lively promenade, and seaside attractions make it a favourite for locals and tourists alike.

"If you're seeking a tranquil and secluded beach in Dorset, Ringstead Bay stands out as a hidden gem. Nestled between Weymouth and Lulworth Cove, this quiet shingle and pebble beach offers clear waters, scenic coastal walks, and a peaceful atmosphere, making it ideal for those looking to escape the crowds."

2 - Greenwich Bay, Yorkshire

"Scarborough Beach is the most popular beach in Yorkshire, drawing visitors with its iconic twin bays and lively seaside atmosphere.

"For a hidden gem and quiet beach in Yorkshire, Greenwich Bay is highly recommended. It's a beautiful, peaceful spot with stunning natural scenery, less crowded than the more popular beaches like Scarborough or Bridlington. The rugged cliffs, rock pools, and tranquil atmosphere make it perfect if you're after a quiet retreat away from the busier tourist spots."

3 - Church Ope Cove, Dorset

"Bournemouth Beach is one of the UK's most popular beaches, known for its seven miles of pristine sand and beautiful coastal views. While Bournemouth Beach attracts many visitors, nearby Church Ope Cove on the Isle of Portland offers one of Dorset's quietest and most serene spots.

"Surrounded by cliffs and ruins of a 13th-century church and a pirate's grave, this sheltered cove is ideal for swimmers, snorkelers, and divers seeking a peaceful adventure. Access to the cove involves a steep descent, and currents can be strong outside the cove."

4 - Pedn Vounder Beach, Cornwall

"Kynance Cove on Cornwall's Lizard Peninsula is famous for its stunning turquoise waters and dramatic rock formations, drawing plenty of visitors.

"But just nearby, Pedn Vounder Beach is a hidden gem. Accessible only by foot or boat, it stays peaceful and quiet, perfect for anyone looking to escape the crowds and enjoy true seclusion."

5 - Birling Gap, East Sussex

Camber Sands in East Sussex is a top favourite thanks to its golden sands and rolling dunes, perfect for families as it offers all the classic seaside fun you'd want.

But just a short drive away, Birling Gap beach in Sussex is backed by white cliffs and at low tide, visitors have the chance to spot sea creatures and hunt for fossils.

Laura Miller, Group Head of Marketing at Away Resorts, said: "As overtourism continues to impact popular destinations worldwide, many travellers are seeking alternatives that offer a more authentic and peaceful experience.

"England's quieter beaches provide the perfect solution, allowing visitors to unwind, explore unspoiled landscapes, and enjoy coastal charm without the hustle and bustle of crowded hotspots.

"Whether you're after scenic walks, wildlife spotting, or simply some time to relax by the sea, these lesser-known beaches are ideal for a refreshing and stress-free summer getaway."
