The Most Beautiful Beach In The World? | SANDS Ross Back Sands, Northumberland, UK. DJI Phantom 4
The North East of England's rugged coastline is awash historic castles and stunning beaches.
Ross Back Sands stands alone however as being one of the most beautiful and unspoilt stretches of coastline in the county, if not the world.
With views of Lindisfarne Castle on Holy Island to the north, Bamburgh Castle to the south and the Cheviot hills to the West, this beach is wild, open and surrounded by centuries of history.
The beach is often deserted, just like when we filmed on this cold, bright winter's day.
Filmed at Ross Back Sands, Northumberland, UK

This is a 6.8 mile leisurely, circular route beginning and ending at the car park which follows the coastline of the island from the harbour, past Edward Luton's famous castle to the nature reserve and the unspoilt north shore of the island and the remains of the lime quarry to the snook where the island becomes tidal. It then follows the causeway road back into the village and your starting point. It involves a lot of walking on dunes and sand and is fairly level, the largest climbs being the sand dunes. There are a couple of sections which involve walking across stony sections of beach. If you are visiting the island you must always check the tide times to ensure that you can get on and off the island. There are some facilities in the village including a visitor centre, a few shops, a post office, pubs and a cafe.

Music / Sound: The birdsong was recorded near the farm to the north of the village on the day of the walk in mid February.

This is a short 4 mile circular walk around the interior of the island which takes in the harbour, Lindisfarne Castle, the lime kilns, the bird and nature reserves, the dunes and a local farm. The lowering sky was genuine as it was a very dark day without rain. Visitors to the island should always check the tide times to ensure they can get on and off the island at low tide. There are several main routes around the island but this is a good route if you only have limited time as it gives a broad cross section of the many aspects of island life and there are shops, pubs and cafes in the village at the end.This video was filmed out of season in February but even in summer the majority of the many tourists who visit the island don't venture further than the village and the castle. There is an easy diversion to the beach from the gate where the route turns back towards the village. A GPS download of this walk is available from my Viewranger profile:
