You are here > Home > Things to Do > Seaham - Connecting the Coast
Explore Rockhouse Dene, look out for sculptures and memorials, and enjoy fabulous coastal views before stopping for a cuppa in Seaham or at the marina.
The walks can be combined to make longer walks and connect to the King Charles III England Coast Path. This path is being developed and will soon go all the way around the coast of England. The section in Durham is fully open and provides wonderful views of the cliffs, beaches and coastal wildlife. Look out for reminders of the coal mining industry, reflect at the Tommy statue and enjoy the walk along the promenade. The walks follow well-marked paths and are suitable for most people. The red route has steps and muddy sections. Barriers prevent access for mobility scooters and pushchairs. Take care on the coast, follow local signs and keep back from the cliff edge.
