]]> During the spring and summer months, there are plenty of great reasons to explore the UK. From its rich and verdant countryside to its stunning golden sand beaches, many tourists and locals alike enjoy the natural beauties that the island has to offer. However, the popularity of some of these locations means that during the high season (generally between May – September), they can become uncomfortably crowded. Check out these tips on how to avoid crowds as a tourist in the UK.

Visit Off Peak

Visiting prime beauty spots in the UK off season (September through to April) is a great way to ensure that you’re not hiking or sunbathing alongside a crowd. However, if you’d like to experience these places during the spring and summer months, another useful tip is to arrive early in the morning or towards the late afternoon. Many popular hill walks and beaches are most crowded between 11am through to 5pm, so taking advantage of beauty spots outside of these times is a great way to get close to nature.

Consider Alternative Destinations

While certain sections of the UK’s coastline and countryside can become incredibly crowded during the summer (hotspots include Cornwall, Devon, the Lake District and the Norfolk coastline), other areas remain relatively empty. If you’re prepared for some bracing winds, then the North East coastline is particularly stunning and relatively empty. Areas around North Wales and parts of North Scotland are also comparatively quiet.

Prepare For Crowds

If you’re determined to visit the really busy beauty spots during the high season, it’s worth coming prepared for the crowds. Bring a sunshade so that you can stake a claim to a particular section of beach or countryside, and it’s also worth bringing food in case cafes and food stands sell out. If you’re intent on swimming in the sea, it may be worth waiting until 5pm when many beachgoers will start leaving for home.
