Sunderland is a city by the sea: our Sir Tom Cowie Campus at St Peter’s is a 10 minute walk from miles of beautiful sandy beach.

Seaburn beach is one of the finest beaches in the North East. With long stretches of sand and a mile-long promenade, it's the perfect place to unwind.

The nearby marina has facilities for sailing, surfing, kayaking and power boating, and the Sunderland coastline is also excellent for scuba diving.‌‌
