These beautiful UK seaside destinations, which could be underwater by 2050, are places that many Brits know and love.
Projections suggest that rising sea levels could put these coastal areas underwater in as little as 30 years.
Areas near Peterborough are likely to be hardest hit, with significant water intrusion predicted, according to the study.
Further south, London is also expected to be affected, with the River Thames potentially flooding its banks.
While Climate Central's data may be alarming, many seaside towns have already implemented a number of coastal defense programs to combat sea level rise and prevent potential damage to local communities. It is worth noting that we are well prepared.
Weston-super-Mare is one of the seaside destinations at risk, MyLondon reports.
This beach town off the coast of Bristol attracts nearly 750,000 visitors a year, but in 27 years the entire beach and much of the surrounding area is predicted to be swallowed up by the sea.
Indeed, large areas along the Bristol coast are expected to be affected by sea level rise, extending as far north as Gloucester.
Another seaside town in danger of being lost to the sea is Poole.
With a coastline of eight unique islands and impressive peninsulas, there are many ways to make the most of your precious weekend getaway.
Poole's seaside railway station will also be engulfed by rising tides, inevitably forcing local authorities to adapt and relocate transport links in and out of the popular seaside town.
Portsmouth also faces an uncertain future and is expected to be severely affected by rising sea levels.
By 2050, much of this popular beach city is expected to be underwater, leaving only a small amount of land untouched by the tides.
East Wittering and West Wittering beaches in Chichester are also predicted to be affected by sea level rise, as shown by the red area on the map.
West Wittering tends to attract a lot of tourists, especially in the summer, but both locations offer breathtaking sea views, especially at low tide when miles of sandy beach are exposed.
Eastbourne, East Sussex, is just an hour and a half from London and is rapidly becoming a popular summer day trip destination.
However, by 2050, historic seaside towns and nearby beaches such as Pevensey Bay are expected to be significantly affected by rising sea levels.
It is predicted that the sea will invade the interior and reach Herstmonceux Castle within just 27 years.
Southend-on-Sea is a popular summer destination for Londoners due to its close proximity to the capital, less than an hour away by train.
Fortunately, by 2050 sea level rise will not have a major impact on Southend-on-Sea, but nearby beaches such as Roslyn Beach, East Beach and Shoebury Common Beach will be swallowed up by the sea.
