Family Days Out in Cleethorpes

    We do love to be beside the seaside… in Cleethorpes!

    If you thought Cleethorpes was just another old-fashioned seaside town, then think again.

    Whilst it does boast a superb long stretch of beach and some of the best fish and chips you’ll find anywhere, there is so much more to Cleethorpes than just this.

    Let’s explore the family activities that are offered in Cleethorpes.

    Let’s hear it for the teens…

    All too often the teenagers get left out when it comes to planning holiday activities with everything feeling like it’s geared towards little ones but we hear you! Cleethorpes has listened to what the teenagers want and it has come up with a whole host of activities and attractions to keep even the most grumpy teenagers happy.

    Fairworld Lazer & Play Indoor Adventure Centre

    Teens kids enjoying themselves at an arcade. There is a colourful digital spinning wheel behind them. There are 6 people in total, 3 boys and 3 girls.

    Try Fairworld Lazer Adventure and Play XL Indoor Adventure Centre, for a range of activities for teenagers (and tweenagers!) & is great on rainy days.

    Everyone loves ten-pin bowling whether you’re 9, 19, or 99, so a visit to Cleethorpes Ten Pin Bowling Alley is sure to keep everyone entertained. Just don’t get too competitive!

    Escapologist & Ebb and Flo Living

    Two people (one male and one female) waterboarding on blue waterboards. They are wearing lifejackets. Out of focus trees can be seen in the background.

    Talking of being competitive, you can’t beat an escape room to bring out the fighting spirit, so why not book a visit to Escapologist Cleethorpes?

    For something a bit more active, check out Ebb and Flo Living in Cleethorpes, where you can hire all the equipment for water sports, such as kayaking and paddle boarding.

    If your teen has never tried them before, it’s a great place to start and a really cool place to hang out as well.

    Toddler time…
