I cannot comment on the beaches simply because, apart from the dog walking part of the beach, we have not used them. My point is though, people do not know the beaches are poor until they get here and appearances seem to show they are not coming in such numbers in the first place.

I tried booking a number of hotels this morning and could not get any reservations for 9th June so it cant' be that bad surely?

Finally got the hotel booked so at least we are sorted .

Our first venture to PP just under 20 years ago was in early May and I fell in love with the place . So sad to read that business is down.

Anyway we will try and boost the economy with our spending money when we get there.

Cheers

Sparky

"When was this?" - Is that regarding quietness in the port in the evenings or the filthy state of the shoreline?

If it's about the shoreline then it's been horrendous since the 2nd if it's about being quiet particularly in the evenings then that was up until about 2 or 3 nights ago but it has picked up a bit since and hopefully will improve. I don't live here so you'll be a far better judge than most about how busy everywhere is. It was simply my opinion against previous years.

I'm sure it's just a lull though and we're not in proper holiday season yet I guess?

Not too many people on the beach probably due to the disgusting state of the shoreline. Full of filthy stinking green weed and debris floating in it. Hope the town council read this. It's a disgrace.

Green weed is a sign of a healthy sea

If there was no weed in the sea there would be no life in the sea.

Today a tractor was collecting the weed along the waters edge on the beach near sail and surf so at least someone is collecting it.

Wish we were able to add to the numbers in PP at the moment, but work might have something to say about that! Still roll on later in the year, and we can add to the latter part of the season!
