The beach at Wells-next-the-sea is an awarding winning beach and popular among dog walkers.

Restrictions – Dogs are allowed on the beach at Wells all year round BUT there are some restrictions notably at the main entrance and near to the many beach huts that adorn the beach dogs are not allowed.

Dog owners are advised to enter the beach via the pinewood forested area to the left of the main entrance (this woodland area is itself a great place to walk).

    What a stunning beach. Huge sand reach at low tide backed by beach huts and pine trees. Can imagine the car park is very busy at height of summer but was fine today on a cooler Sunday. Even managed to see a couple of seals. Photos are better than words.

    Beautiful town, beach and harbour. Loved our visit to the beach. It was very busy as it was a Bank Holiday weekend but still enough room to enjoy. Disappointed however to see dogs on the beach despite plenty of signs saying no dogs allowed.

    Beautifull setting right on the sea and with sea marshes. Plenty of boats and small fishing fleet. Plenty of walks. If you like food Plenty of good dining choices and of course seafood. Quirky. Craft shops up various lanes and Interesting buildi gs all old and original. A couple of amusement arcades old fashioned fresh shell fish bar on quayside. Beach sandy and at end of embarked walk along the sea...good 25min walk but worth it to visit new lifeboat station and colourful beach huts...all 200 of them!! Butchers/ bakers/ excellant Co op. Most relaxing village which is well maintained.

    One of my favourite beaches in the UK. Beautiful and clean. Dog friendly all year round (on the dog friendly side) Such a long beach that goes on for miles and doesn't feel crowded. We always rent a beach hut everytime we come and use the sand dunes, woods to our advantage come wet or windy weather. Toilet block in the woods are open through the summer season as are the water taps at various points at the back of the beach huts. There are toilets in the car park as well as a cafe & icecream hut. On a sunny summers day this could be a beach abroad! Can't wait to come back at the end of the year
