Join us on a surprising adventure in Skegness considered to be one of the worst UK's seaside towns! 🌊🇬🇧 We wanted to investigate this assumption on our own so first we explored the vibrant Grand Parade challenging ourselves with arcade games and went to the iconic pier! Plus, we looked for quirky finds at Spalls of Skegness gift shop, enjoyed a scenic boat ride on the lake, and indulged in the best fish and chips at Seaview Fisheries 🐠🍟 Is Skegness really as bad as they say? Watch to find out!

Skegness, Margate, Leysdown etc are all similar.. they're designed primarily for kids of all ages. There's something just magical seeing these places with arcades all lit up at night, with the smell of hot dogs, doughnuts, candy floss wafting around.. its not for everyone but kids don't judge things like cleanliness, food quality, etc.. As much as I love a nice foreign holiday in the sun, with a spotlessly clean pool, there's still something special about going somewhere like Skeggy with everything a kid could ever want!!

@JayandKarolina Месяц назад

It’s funny you saying that because we could exactly feel the same way! There’s also charm to them old-style shops or typical restaurants so it brought up lots of memories for me! We felt a little taken back in time but we really enjoyed it in Skegness or rather Skeg Vegas 😬⚡️

You are not wrong. There must be all of one tree amongst all the derelict buildings. Stanley park is beautiful but it would be nice if the greenery was spread out to the town. They manage it in Lytham St.Annes up the road. They don't even take care of the Winter Gardens so where is all the money that the tourists bring in?

@JayandKarolina Месяц назад

We absolutely loved both the fish&chips and the tea! While seated, a lot of people came into that shop for take-away orders so it must be a popular spot among locals 🐠

@user-bp9wq6ll4i Месяц назад

It used to be great till greed took over and quality was replaced by trashiness. There was a gorgeous model village once, a long pier with theatre at the end, a nineteen twenties huge swimming pool with grass surrounding it, the boating lake was better prior to its demise, you could get jugs of tea under the pier, the waterway was so good, there were two theatres quite grand, ditto a cinema, two free paddling pools one of which was saved due to outrage at it being proposed to be taken by the greedy developers, check ot The Fairy Dell. As for the rest of it they paved paradise and put up a loud, garish mess.

@user-bp9wq6ll4i Месяц назад

The chips were ONCE edible and freshly chipped and the fish top notch, all to be found on chip alley. I hate the sickly smell of stale cooking oil! Locals would opt for the ones done in beef dripping. The rock always came with a picture of skeggy inside the pack.I liked the aniseed or pink mint. I do not rate the modern changes. I love those shops selling buckets and spades, blow up beach balls and boats for the bath as a grown up. My son loves candy floss, for me warm donuts. At the fair which was Bottons was a stand selling little dishes of fresh seafood, lush with a dash of vinegar. and the tunnel of love was handy for a cheeky snog!

There was a theater on the end of the pier .but I think it burnt down ,but they saved some of the pier.

That is awesome! By the curb is my number 1 youtuber. James is amazing and down to earth guy wears his heart on his sleeve. I went to Skeggy at around 10. Just one thing I want to mention because folk don't understand this. You said about the water looking murky etc yeh? I lived in Blackpool most of my life it's same there. BUT!!! The water is actually very clear!!!!! It just looks like that because of the Sand colour it churns up and makes it looks dirty. See down south white sand and the texture is very silky like teeny granules which don't kick up and mix into water/waves. Iv added you x

@JayandKarolina Месяц назад

Yes we found James and Helen super friendly and had a nice chat with them :) Thanks for sharing because actually even if the water didn't look that appealing it changes the whole perspective now!

We had the same issue regarding filming whilst over in Blackpool a couple of years ago. Unless it's because children are sometimes found in the arcades, then I can't really understand why filming is banned from most of these places 🤔

@JayandKarolina Месяц назад

From the previous comments we understood that the machines are kind of designed in a way that you'll never fully win and they don't want to expose it but I guess we know it anyways 😂 But probably they would have found any other reasons to stop you anyways haha

@DaysofHorror Месяц назад

@JayeshChhaya it's annoying, as we had set up an old-fashioned kind-of gaming channel, visiting arcades and recording us playing the games. But that changed after we were told to stop filming 😅 To be honest, it probably helped us as we took a different direction and started the channel we have now.

The portion is small and costs like 30 pounds. Very underwhelmed.

@JayandKarolina Месяц назад

You're totally right haha, if you think about it longer it definitely sounds bad 😂 But the whole atmosphere at Skeggy is quite distinctive - a bit kitsch and a bit nostalgic - so even naming the funfair like that didn't surprise us lol Although there are plenty of fish & chips shot around I would have guessed that some of them would be average and highly overrated which is a bit disappointing.... We always try to find cool spots before filming, but they're often not in the centre of things, so not everyone wants to go off the main streets - we didn't mind, because if you want quality it's sometimes nice to pick a specific spot 👍 Maybe next time you could visit Seaview Fisheries then!

We’ve been talking about it the other day but not sure yet if we want to change the channel name or not :) Karolina likes to do the behind-the-scenes tasks but she’s becoming more confident on the camera too so will see what makes the biggest sense 🙏

The best chips are home cooked, half boiled then drained and oven cooked with olive oil poured over them or coconut oil ..all organic of course to avoid toxic chemicals, with balsamic vinegar ..organic of course, and Himalayan salt on. The very best in taste and for your health. The best sweet treats are raw organic chocolate like Halo bars..Holland and Barrett sell them…which are sweetened with organic coconut sugar …good for your health and the best taste of real chocolate that snaps when you break a piece. The best pop is kombucha …make sure it’s authentic ..I get it in glass bottles and it has the ‘mother’ left in it …the culture ..the funny looking stuff ..can’t remember the exact name but it means it’s good for your gut. Anything in cafes etc are cooked in vegetable oils that are extremely clogging for the arteries and heart ..a health hazard.. as are all refined sugar products …especially rock. But most sauces and bread etc have refined sugar in. You’re worth it, you only have one body and one life in that body ✝️🕊️🌈😘🥰😍

We got our fresh fruit and veg from Morrisons in the organic section which is near the train station. The fruit and veg shops didn’t have organic when we were there.

We believe that if generally you're learning a healthy lifestyle - you nourish your body well, are active and try not to drink too much alcohol - you cam sometimes treat yourself to a nice meal out or a cake. It doesn't always mean that it's unhealthy but as you're saying, there's a lot of fried and sugary stuff that people are cravings for 😬😬

Hi Jayne - we didn’t moan about Skegness at all quite the opposite! We had a great day out and challenged the stereotype and interviewed a few of the locals to hear what they have to say. Have a watch of the video and if you still think that we’re moaning please let us know 😅

@mrswigglebottom967 Месяц назад

Thanks for uploading this. It's just a matter of taste but to me it looks better than a lot of other seaside towns. Then again I think Whitby is awful while everyone says how lovely it is. One thing I know for sure, seaside towns in the UK are very childish and unsophisticated when compared to ones in the EU with their pavement cafes and good restaurants. Better than piers or amusement arcades.

@JayandKarolina Месяц назад

That's an interesting observation because you have really hit the nail on the head! European resorts are creating a kind of luxury restaurant or café, because apparently there is a demand for it :) But British holiday seaside towns, on the other hand, have a charm from the past - it will be interesting to see how that changes over the years. Will nostalgia or the future win out?

@mrswigglebottom967 Месяц назад

@@JayandKarolina Yes it is interesting because the northern European countries have just as bad weather as us, if not worse, yet their more upmarket seaside towns still attract visitors. Chicken/egg cycle? Our inland towns are also degenerated. Nottingham's main square had lion fountains and trees that have been replaced by concrete. Many towns have replaced green squares for concrete slabs for the sake of making money through staging events and fairs. They also need less maintenance. The future seems to be about making a quick buck and being taken over by big chains. At the same time the UK mind set seems to be ignorant of other countries. We could have learnt so much from European countries that still have quality in mind when planning. Most of our eating places don't even know what freshly squeezed orange juice is. I feel Karolina's frustration for lack of fresh stuff!
