If you can’t make it to the beach this year, we’ll bring the beach to you! With Watford Borough Council’s Big Beach, you don’t need to travel to the coast to feel the sand between your toes – just head into town!

 

The beach is completely free – and is the perfect chance for people of all ages to lap up the summer sun, with deck chairs and tables provided to help you relax.

​

There are a variety of beach toys and buckets and spades which you’ll be able to get from the beach hut – as well as any information you might need. The hut is open 10am to 4pm each day.

 

Feel free to bring your own food and drink, or if you prefer, the Big Beach isn't far from many fabulous restaurants from which you could order!

 

We ask that children are supervised by an adult while at the beach, and that you dispose of any rubbish in one of the bins provided.
