Great Yarmouth is Norfolk’s largest seaside town — a place where walking trails meet resort traditions, and coastal paths lead past piers, pavilions, and the historic fishing quarter. It marks a natural stop on the Norfolk Coast Path, especially for those continuing south toward Gorleston and Hopton or arriving from quieter northern sections.
Though known for its amusements and arcades, Great Yarmouth offers more than meets the eye. There’s a rich maritime history here, a vast stretch of open beach, and a long seafront promenade that blends Victorian charm with sea views. For walkers, it’s a good place to pause, recharge, and explore the intersection of history, coast, and community.
