The town's beach is the only one in Northern England to make the top 20.
The accolade comes from the annual Tripadvisor Travellers Choice Awards.
The company say the awards highlight travellers’ favourite beaches across the globe and are based on the quality and quantity of reviews and ratings from Tripadvisor travellers for beaches, gathered over the past 12 months.
According to the poll the best beach in Europe is Spiaggia dei Conigli in Lampedusa on the Islands of Sicily.
The highest ranking British beach is Bournemouth which rates as Europe's 5th best, Perranporth in Cornwall is 16th, Filey is 18th.
The survey ranks Whitehaven Beach in Australia as the best in the world. Bournemouth is the only British beach to make the global list squeezing in at number 20.
