Druridge Bay

One of Northern England's hottest dogging/cruising beaches. This section of Druridge Bay is a gloriously wild and isolated area of dunes between the marsh and the sea. Lots of hot gay, bi, straight, bi guys and M/F couples sunbathing or cruising naked or in swimwear. Paths across the dunes are cruisy with hidden sunbathing spots where guys fuck. It is also possible to swim naked. It is a sheltered spot, so it will be hot on a summer's day. Great naked swimming if the tide is coming in and warming the water on the hot sand. You can also swim in the tidal lagoons which are sometimes left when the tide retreats. Take water, sandwiches, condoms, suncream and beach towel. Who goes there: All types: a whole range of guys and girls. Some very hunky guys and hot babes. People travel far and wide to come here. How To Get There: The car parking area is accessible from the A1068 near the hamlet of Red Row (post code NE61 5AB). From the centre of Red Row village (near the Gingerbread Cafe), travel past Red Row County First School, onto the A1068 northbound and turn left as if heading north towards Amble. Immediately on the right-hand side is an unnamed lane. Take this, following it to the end where it becomes an uneven and sometimes rutted tarmac track. This dead-end is the car parking for the beach and there is ample parking along the road. Once parked up, walk towards the sea and onto a wide cyclepath/footpath and turn right (south) and walk for 5 minutes until you reach a signpost. 60 seconds later, you will cross over a river, and you will see a large, high sand dune another 5 minutes' walk in front of you. This is the gay cruising part of the beach. Head for the dunes, find a hidden spot in the long grass. You can swim, cruise, and have sex here. 45-minute drive from Newcastle-upon-Tyne 1-hour drive from Berwick-upon-Tweed 2 hours, 15-minute drive from Edinburgh Car parking: ///explained.wool.remote Or GPS: 55.279405, -1.575462 Cruising section of beach: What3Words: ///overdrive.perky.rang GPS: 55.274345, -1.570610
