What visitors say
A beautiful sandy beach and a perfect spot for families. The beach is wide, clean, and much quieter than the main Hunstanton beach, with plenty of space for children to play and build sandcastles. The dunes and distinctive cliffs make it especially scenic. The beach is very tidal, so be prepared for a walk to the sea at low tide, but this also creates plenty of space for games and exploring. Arriving early is recommended during warm weekends as parking can get busy. Overall, a lovely, peaceful beach and well worth the trip. We will definitely be returning.

This beach spans over a long distance and it's incredible. You can walk a long way in the water because it's very shallow. The cliffs here are also surreal

A nice beach just as it is. A change from the usual beaches that have everything on hand inc toilets! Went for the view of the cliffs. There is the lighthouse cafe above the beach. Went for the day and took all food and drink.

It’s a great beach for walking along and viewing the amazing striped cliff with its three distinctive shades of chalk rock. There is also the wreck of an old boat to marvel at. We enjoyed the peace and quiet here too. There is a paying car park on the cliff top but we later realised that there is free roadside parking between old and new Hunstanton worth checking out
