Beaches
A beach for everyone!
Brancaster beach is a good family beach. When the tide is out you can venture left or right. Plenty of space for everyone! There’s a car park but check the tide times as it does flood. There’s a toilet block and a kiosk for drinks and snacks, buckets and spades and other beach necessities!

The picturesque harbour at Burnham Overy Staithe is where Admiral Nelson learnt to sail. If you don’t mind a walk to the beach, it’s worth taking the mile long ridge path which leads to a steep sand dune. Climb up the sand dune and the beach lies below.
If you are after a longer walk, you can walk all the way to Holkham and on to Wells next the Sea, either along the beach or through the pine trees. Good for a long circular walk, finished off with a well earned drink at The Hero in Burnham Overy Staithe.

A lovely beach beautiful soft sand, framed with the backdrop of coloured beach huts and pine trees. On a sunny blue sky day, the view through the pine trees is amazing.
The beach nearest the cafe is dog free. The dog friendly section is further down and can be accessed by the steps through the pine trees.
Alternatively, if you walk through the end of the car park, you can access the beach with minimal steps by walking through the pine trees, past the toilet block, up the sloping board walk and down a few steps between the beach huts.
