YOUR GUIDE

Get to know Thornton-Cleveleys.

Cleveleys offers a gentler seaside experience along the Fylde Coast, with a broad promenade, beach access and a town centre that is easy to explore on foot. It suits visitors who want time by the water as well as a base for exploring surrounding coastal towns.

One of its distinctive features is the Mythic Coast artwork trail. The sculptures bring the local Sea Swallow story to life along the promenade and beach. Mary’s Shell stands on the sand and is best explored with tide times in mind; the Sea Swallow sculpture is another recognisable feature of the seafront.

The wider Thornton-Cleveleys area includes residential streets and holiday accommodation as well as the beachfront. Check a listing’s actual location, bedrooms and facilities before booking. A property described as being in Thornton is not necessarily directly on the Cleveleys seafront.
