Brighton is a great day out, but for the best beaches head to Bournemouth (1:45 from Waterloo).

Hey Noble.x

My name is Will, I'm a Media Production student at Bournemouth University.
If you are looking for more of a day trip then Bournemouth is an amazing beach to go to. It stretches 7 miles! all the way from Hengistbury Head to Poole. And it is very well connected with the fast train from London only taking 2 hours with then only a 15-20 minute walk from Bournemouth Train Station to the pier! You could even go two stops further to Poole.
I hope this helps. I've spent plenty of hours down at the beach during the summer and it is amazing!
