Sometimes it’s those simple pleasures that seem the most magical and a trip to East Yorkshire should always include a visit to the beach. And while a walk along the sand at sunset may seem a little too cliche, it's invigorating, calming and almost certainly a guilty pleasure for most. East Yorkshire ranges from towering cliff top walks at Bempton, and quaint cobbly coves of Flamborough to wide open beaches at Bridlington, Fraisthorpe and Hornsea.
