Goodrington Sands is a beautiful family beach in Paignton, UK. During summer, families can swim in the shallow water watched over by lifeguards. For those who love water sports, pedalos, paddle boats, and windsurfing are available. The UK's largest waterpark, Quaywest Waterpark, is located right next to the beach, offering eight water slides, a small splash pool, and a swimming pool. Visitors can also enjoy a meal at the beach café or rent sun loungers, beach huts, or deck chairs to bask in the sun. At low tide, kids can enjoy rock-pooling and explore the beach's sea creatures. Before heading out to the rock pools, visitors should stop by the Seashore Centre, which offers information on the beach's natural beauty.
