What is the nearest sea-side resort to London?

Answer 1

That's a question that is dependent on geographical distance, driving distance, and driving time. TO find out the answer for myself, I came up with the following using Google.

Nearest beaches to King's Street, Twickenham

==================================================================================

In summary, from the above names, Canvey Island is the closest, but Brighton is the quickest drive.

Answer 2

Brighton to the South or Southend to the East.
