After your walk along Pier Parade, you have finally made it to the seafront! 

Here you will find golden sandy beaches, a fun fair and amusements, and a scattering of cafes, restaurants and food vendors.

You can also see, just beyond the fairground, the historic South Shields Volunteer Life Brigade - a Grade 2 listed Watch House with a unique collection of shipwreck material, lifesaving equipment and local history. They were one of the very first voluntary life brigades, saving countless lives since 1866.

From here you can explore the beautiful coast line of South Shields before making your way back along the trail to travel home.
