Cleethorpes is a seaside town on the estuary of the Humber in North East Lincolnshire, Lincolnshire, England with a population of 29,670 in 2021. It has been permanently occupied since the 6th century, with fishing as its original industry, and then developing into a resort in the 19th century. Before becoming a unified town, Cleethorpes was made up of the three small villages of Itterby, Oole and Thrunscoe.

The town lies on the prime meridian, also known as the Greenwich meridian, and its average annual rainfall is amongst the lowest in the British Isles.[3]

In 2021, Trainline named Cleethorpes beach the second best seaside destination in the UK that is reachable by train, just behind Margate.

***THINGS TO DO IN CLEETHORPES***
The seaside resort of Cleethorpes lies on the Humber Estuary; thus the sea at Cleethorpes is the mouth of the Humber. There are several hundred metres of sand at low tide.

The sea front provides views of shipping traffic entering and leaving the Humber for the ports of Grimsby, Immingham, Hull and Goole.[36]

Two large fortifications, the Humber Forts, are visible in the mouth of the river. On a clear day, the lighthouse situated on Spurn Point can be seen with the naked eye from the North Beach.

There is a Royal National Lifeboat Institution station near the pier and next to the Coastguard on Central Promenade. Work began on a new, larger RNLI station in 2022. Cleethorpes Rescue also protect the beach.

*The Boating Lake*
Cleethorpes has a large boating lake with many varieties of ducks, swans and geese. There is also a 62.01-hectare (153.2-acre) local nature reserve: Cleethorpes Country Park, situated between the resort and the village of Humberston. To the south of Cleethorpes, near Humberston, is a yacht club.

*Ross Castle*
The Cleethorpes Leisure Centre was opened in 1983 to replace the open bathing pool that was wrecked by storms on 11 January 1978. The leisure centre contains a 33-metre pool, 1.8 metres deep, as well as a water slide and a wave machine. The building also contains a gym and a sports hall. In 2012, major work was carried out to the roof of the building due to water damage.

*Kingsway gardens and seafront*
Ross Castle, a mock ruin of a castle built in 1885 by the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway, was named after Edward Ross, secretary of the railway company. Its height was the highest point on the cliffs. After a period of closure, the castle was renovated, re-opening in June 2008 to the public. Possibilities of a further closure have been raised after a woman fell to her death on 9 January 2009.

In 2007 the town was the Royal Horticultural Society's Britain in Bloom award winner in the coastal category. The town was also received a Silver-Gilt award, a tourism award (for Lollipop Road Train) and Jeff Blanchard the Shredded Wheat Community Champions award

The town is home to Cleethorpes Beach Holiday Park, currently run by Haven Holidays. Due to its former name, Thorpe Park Holiday Centre, bearing a strong resemblance to the Thorpe Park Resort theme park in Thorpe, Surrey, there was a glitch on Google Maps that mistook the two, accidentally sending people going to the theme park to the Haven and vice versa. This, alongside confusion between the two, and possible private legal action from Merlin Entertainments, the current owners of Thorpe Park, influenced Haven to rebrand the park.
