Feel the excitement and anticipation that filled the air during D-Day in 1944, when these sandy shores played a pivotal role on the historic map. Aberdeen - The Silver City by the Sea, immortalized in an LMS/LNER poster from 1923-1947, invites you to discover its coastal charm. But don't stop there; venture further into Cornwall and find yourself mesmerized by Polzeath Beach's golden sands and crystal-clear waters.

These haunting figures evoke contemplation while blending seamlessly with their surroundings. Traveling eastward brings us to Viking Bay beach nestled within Broadstairs' charming streetscape. This hidden gem offers tranquility and picturesque views that will leave you breathless. Escape to Scotland's Ardnamurchan Peninsula where Sanna beaches await discovery amidst Lochaber Highlands' rugged beauty.
