Norfolk Beaches

Norfolk has 93 miles of coastline laden with unspoilt beaches that are clean, safe and family-friendly.

They are great to enjoy throughout the seasons; all are dog-friendly and on most days have stunning sunsets.

Brancaster is our all-around recommendation however Wells and Hunstanton are best for family days, Cromer is best for surfing and Holkham for walking the dog.
