I think that's more the variation in the height of the water rather than how far out to sea one can walk at low tide? Hunstanton is obviously unusual in being a west-facing beach in the east of England.

57.5 Degrees of Pain Sep 2022 8:55pm, 15 Sep 2022 9,778 posts	Quote Pin 57.5 Degrees of Pain I think the Bay if Fundy claims the biggest tide. I tried to get out there to bag some sea zones but the uncovered seabed was soft and tricky to run on, not the compact sand I enjoy at low tide in the Moray Firth.

The bottom left zone is partly on land, but the top left I was the first explorer of. And no wonder: very nearly the entire run was on mud or 1-2" of water or both.
