Kessingland offers a peaceful stretch of Suffolk coastline where the cliffs begin to rise and the beaches stretch long and quiet. Set just south of Lowestoft, on the final miles of the Suffolk Coast Path, it’s a place to walk slowly, watch seabirds wheel across the dunes, and feel far from the bustle of the busier seaside towns nearby.
With its mix of grassy cliffs, shingle beach, and low-lying marshes, Kessingland makes an ideal base or stopping point for walkers exploring this wilder northern end of the trail. It’s especially well-suited to those seeking easy access to open coast, nature-rich landscapes, and a calm, unspoiled atmosphere.
