This week, Ryhope South Beach is our focus.
The beach was once a famous location often visited by the Bishops of Durham for bathing, but has long since been forgotten.
After taking a walk through a very misleading tunnel, you come to a winding path which is home to a variety of animals.
Eventually, you are rewarded with a quiet and secluded beach with misty views of jagged cliffs, and picturesque sights.
