Welcome to Skegness, the UK's favorite seaside resort where the sand is as fine as the British humor and the sun shines about as often as a solar eclipse. Known for its iconic pier and the unmistakable smell of fish and chips wafting through the air, this town is perfect for those who enjoy a side of nostalgia with their sandcastle building.
Accommodation ranges from charming B&Bs that may or may not have floral wallpaper dating back to the last century, to hotels that embrace the classic seaside theme (think seagulls and saltwater taffy). Stay in the bustling center or opt for a quieter spot near the beach – just remember, you can’t escape the seagulls no matter where you go.
While you're here, don’t miss the Skegness Natureland Seal Sanctuary, because who doesn’t want to see baby seals looking cuter than you on your best day? And if you’re feeling adventurous, take a walk along the coast to encounter the odd beach hut or perhaps an impromptu dance-off with a seagull (you will lose). The best time to visit is in summer, when the weather is relatively warm and the ice cream is always within arm's reach.
And why compare hotels on FlyDoha, you ask? Because even if you can’t avoid the seagulls, at least you can avoid overpaying for a room that looks suspiciously like a 1970s time capsule.
