Filey Beach is an extensive sandy resort beach on the Yorkshire coast. The designated bathing water area is 850 metres in length with a gentle slope. At low tide a large area of the beach is exposed and the water's edge can be some distance away. The beach is backed by the town of Filey.
The traditional seaside resort of Filey is less commercial than some of its East-Coast neighbours and is an ideal seaside location for young families or anyone looking for a fine stretch of good sand for walks, playing in the sand, kite-flying or even horse riding. The glorious 5-mile stretch of golden sand stretches from the rocky peninsula of Filey Brigg to the north down to Bempton, home to an RSPB reserve. At low tide a quarter-mile width of sand is exposed. Younger visitors will find plenty of good rock pools to explore along this stretch.
Filey has a strong fishing heritage and today visitors can still watch fishermen mending and casting their nets from the traditional "coble" fishing boats. The promenade running along the seafront features a series of art works inspired by the local natural heritage. For the real thing though, head to Filey Brigg which is a good spot for birdwatching and marks the start of the Cleveland Way coastal walk.
There are seasonal restrictions on dog-walking in the area between the Royal Parade and the beach slipway. Other parts of the beach are dog-friendly at any time of year - see signage. The water is safe for bathing and in the summer season there are RNLI Lifeguards on duty.
The traditional seaside resort of Filey on the Yorkshire coast has a blue flag award winning sandy beach loved by families for generations. Sit on the beach and have some fish and chips or explore the area and follow the The Seafront Sculpture Trail featuring artworks inspired by the area's natural heritage.
