Humberston Fitties Beach or just Fitties Beach is at the south end of the long stretch of sand at Cleethorpes in Lincolnshire at the mouth of the Humber Estuary. The beach is backed by sand dunes and a path along the top of the sea defence that runs the entire length of the beach.
The area is interesting as behind the beach you have an area of unique chalets made from whatever was available like old railway carriages. You also have just our to sea two sand forts, originally built during WW! but then also used during WWII as protection for shipping entering and leaving the estuary. The fort furthest out is Bull Sand Fort and the closer one is Haile Sand Fort.
At the south end of the beach, you have Tetney Marsh Nature Reserve that has a selection of paths running through the marshes and ponds, although your dogs will need to be on a lead.
Fritties beach is a very popular kitesurfing location.
The beach is a great alternative to the busy promenade in Cleethorpes. although it has no facilities you do have a small car park on Anthony’s Bank Road.
Dog Friendly Beach?
Humberston Fitties Beach is dog friendly and allows dogs all year.
Water samples are taken at regular intervals during the bathing season and at the end of the season the water quality is classified as: - Excellent: the highest classification meaning the water is cleanest - Good: generally good water quality - Sufficient: meets minimum standards - Poor: You are advised not to swim. The beach will stay open and an action plan should be in place to improve the water quality.
