A MAN has revealed that he has found the ultimate family-friendly beach in the UK’s second city.

The new sandy spot opened last month and is run by Birmingham-based Danter Attractions. 

Complete with deckchairs, roller coasters, games and dodgems, there’s plenty to do to ensure your little darlings have a fabulous day out.

Not only this, but there’s also food vendors selling snacks, ice creams and drinks, which all add to the holiday vibe.

Aside from the 500 tonnes of sand, there’s even a pool for children with slides and water features

One user tagged a friend and noted: “Let's go when I'm back.”

Whilst another mentioned a loved one and shared: “Look at this!!!” 

However, at the same time, someone else said: “£4 a ride, if not more, went last year..never again. Staff on each ride didn't know how to smile but they did with others.”
