11 photos of people having fun in the sun at Seaton Carew beach

Here is our gallery of people enjoying a day out in the sun on the beach at Seaton Carew.

With the UK experiencing a mini-heatwave, people flocked to Seaton Carew beach to enjoy a day out in the sun.

Highs of around 25°c are expected in Hartlepool with the weather set to remain warm heading into the weekend.

Our photographer Stu Norton visited the seafront on Thursday, August 6 to capture images of people enjoying their day out.
