A lovely place, some nice coffee and eating places. It's not been commerciallised. Lots of benches to sit a while.
A small beach with a walk along the front to the larger Chalkwell beach. Bell Wharf offers a small sandy beach with lots of pubs to enjoy food, drink and ice creams. There is also a wonderful selection of fresh seafood on offer. Absolutely delicious, highly recommend
Small beach but some lovely bars and seafood restaurants, gets very busy in the summer, would highly recommend
Bell Wharf Beach is a lovely seaside spot with a unique character and beautiful coastal views. The changing tides create a special atmosphere, with boats resting on the mudflats and wide open scenery that feels peaceful and refreshing. The sandy area is great for families, especially children who enjoy playing and exploring. It’s an ideal place for a walk, relaxing in the sun, or simply watching the sea life and local activity. The area feels clean, welcoming, and full of charm. Nearby cafés and Old Leigh add even more appeal, making it easy to spend a few enjoyable hours here. A fantastic beach area with something different to offer every visit.
Cute little fisherman village with good transportation links, high quality restaurants options, walkable seaside including access to Bell Wharf beach and impressive tide activity. You can see the water 2 miles in the horizon and few hours later you have 5.5 meters of deep water just in front of you.
