• Transport: Park in Whitburn Bents Car Park or take the E1 bus (Sunderland/South Shields) to the car park. From here walk up the coast road and turn right into Front Street to begin the walk at Whitburn Hall. The E6 bus stops next to Whitburn Hall. If you only do this one section, return to the car park on foot is possible, if you reach St Peter's catch the E1 bus back to the start.
• Facilities: There are toilets on Seaburn Seafront, at Morrisons and at the Stack where you will find street food stalls. There are other restaurants and kiosks near the Stack.
• Accessibility: This entire route is accessible as it follows pavement along the route, however there is a kissing gate at the end of the footpath from Church Lane to the coast road so anyone unable to use this would need to walk through the park.
