The first attraction to mention is the wonderful sandy beach and sand-hills which stretch for miles along the North Norfolk Coast.

These are available within a few miles at the Broads centres in Stalham, Wroxham, Horning and Potter Heigham. The tourist information centre mentioned later can supply you with free brochures and literature.
