From dodgy 99 Flakes to the eternal war with seagulls over your chips, British seaside trips are a national institution. But which part of the coastal experience truly holds your heart?
Put the items in your preferred order.

Fish and Chips on the Seafront
There's nothing quite like eating out of paper while the wind whips your hair and a suspicious gull eyes your battered cod. It's chaotic, it's greasy, and it's absolutely perfect.

The Classic 99 Ice Cream
Soft-serve in a cone with a Cadbury Flake shoved in the top β a masterpiece of British engineering. The only debate is whether you lick around it or bite straight in.

Arcade on the Pier
Grabber machines, penny pushers, and that one tuppenny slot you swear is about to tip β pier arcades have been robbing us blind for decades and we keep going back for more.

A Windswept Walk Along the Beach
Even in drizzle with sand in your shoes, a proper beach walk clears the head like nothing else. Bonus points if you find a good skimming stone or a dramatic cliff view.

Donkey Rides on the Sand
Slightly plodding, undeniably charming β the humble seaside donkey has been giving kids their first taste of animal adventure for over a century. Long may they reign.
