Druridge Bay Country Park, Country park in Northumberland, United Kingdom
Druridge Bay Country Park encompasses seven miles of sandy beach, Ladyburn Lake, woodland areas, and grasslands along the Northumberland coast.
The location transformed from an opencast coal mine that closed in 1983 into a public park, with the mining pit converted into Ladyburn Lake.
The park hosts regular Saturday parkrun events and seasonal festivals that bring together local communities for outdoor activities and entertainment.
Visitors can access amenities including a cafe, toilets, visitor center, parking facilities, and designated areas for water sports throughout daylight hours.
The coastal landscape contains preserved World War II defensive structures, including anti-tank blocks and pill boxes along the shoreline.
