This image shows a coastal safety notice at Filey seafront warning visitors about the dangers of rising tides when accessing Filey Brigg, a narrow rocky headland extending into the North Sea. The sign advises walkers to check the tide table before entering the Brigg and to leave the area at least two hours before high tide to avoid becoming cut off. Filey Brigg is a popular destination for walkers, anglers, fossil hunters, and tourists, but its natural geography means that access is limited during certain tidal conditions. The warning highlights the risk of people becoming trapped by incoming tides, a recurring hazard on parts of the Yorkshire coast. The sign includes lifeboat and HM Coastguard contact information, reinforcing the role of emergency services in coastal safety and rescue operations. In the background, the wide sandy beach and calm sea conditions contrast with the potential danger posed by changing tides. The photograph documents the importance of clear public safety messaging in coastal tourist areas, illustrating how signage plays a key role in protecting visitors, bathers, and walkers unfamiliar with local tidal patterns.
