Are we even a seaside resort? I’ve always thought of us as a riverside resort.


Well hull is listed as a seaside town, but that was so they could get away with dumping sewage in to the river....sorry, sea

I’ve never thought our beach is appealing. Looks shockingly muddy when the tide goes out, and the only real nice sandy bits are let’s face it, just a slither.

Travel South towards Mablethorpe, and then yes you get to some amazing wide, golden sandy beaches. Quality beaches down there, and some fab nature conservation areas too that surround the beaches.




First things first ... Fenty 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Secondly , the coast line extends farther in land than you think . Keadby the other side of Scunny is technically on the coast .

Thirdly , Cleethorpes is on the Humber Estuary or Mouth of the Humber .

Congratulations on the confluence of my two great loves, fluvial nomenclature and pedantry.

Absolutely correct but let's keep it to ourselves as since it's tidal all the way to Gainsborough we don't want the mudrats changing their name to Hull on sea do we? 😉


Technically it’d be ‘Kingston-upon-Sea’. Or if they shorten the name like they did with Kingston-upon-Hull it’d just be ‘Sea’ 😆


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Quoted from mimma
Just to be pedantic,  there is no RIVER Humber, it is just an estuary.  The Humber was formed when two rivers, the Ouse and Trent met and flowed towards the sea to form the Humber Estuary. Since it hasn't got a source of it's own it cannot be called a river.


If you were a true pedant you would have said "....it hasn't got a source of ITS own....."

Its is the possessive of "it"
