What other parents say about Talacre Beach
Cheshire based mum of 3 blogger at Always On The Go said: "Talacre beach is a large expanse of sand on the northernmost point of Wales where the Dee Estuary meets the Irish sea. Backed by sand dunes and with a scenic old lighthouse (reputed to be haunted!) it makes a great beach destination. Although popular, it’s large enough not to feel busy so the kids can have a real run around."
