Lovely to see the seals in season. Stop for lunch at the Dunes Cafe at Waxham Barn on the way. Take swimmers in the summer so that you can get in the water.

A small seaside town with a great pier and lots of the character you'd hope for from an English seaside town: arcades, surfing, coffee shops, crabbing, pubs, a cinema, theatre on the pier and a lovely beach. A recent addition is the Banksy artwork on the beach between Cromer and Overstrand (find it just passed the last beachhuts at Cromer). There's an hourly bus from just at the end of the Londs to Cromer. Check online for up to date timings.

The best fish and chips in Cromer (according to my husbands family but I don't think we've ever been anywhere else to confirm this)- a firm family favourite. Order to takeaway and eat on the pier if warm enough.
