Winterton-on-Sea is a peaceful coastal village where sand dunes stretch to the horizon and the pace of life feels wonderfully slow. It’s one of the most atmospheric places along the Norfolk Coast Path — ideal for walkers looking to immerse themselves in nature. The beach here is wild and windswept, backed by grassy dunes and a protected National Nature Reserve rich in wildlife.
Just south of Horsey and north of Hemsby, Winterton offers an ideal stop or base for walking holidays. The area is popular with seal watchers in winter, nature lovers year-round, and anyone seeking a quieter seaside stay. Its pub, café, and beach car park make it more than just a pass-through — it’s a place to stay still for a while.
