Welcome to Winterton on Sea

Winterton-on-Sea is a charming village located on the east coast of Norfolk, England. It is situated between the towns of Great Yarmouth and Cromer and is known for its beautiful sandy beach, dunes, and nature reserve. The village has a rich history dating back to the 11th century and is home to several historic buildings, including the All Saints Church, which dates back to the 13th century.

One of the main attractions of Winterton-on-Sea is its stunning beach, which stretches for miles and is perfect for long walks, sunbathing, and swimming. The beach is backed by sand dunes, which are home to a variety of wildlife, including rabbits, birds, and butterflies. The dunes are also a popular spot for picnics and barbecues, and there are several cafes and restaurants nearby where visitors can enjoy a meal or a drink.

Another popular attraction in Winterton-on-Sea is the nature reserve, which is home to a variety of rare and endangered species, including the natterjack toad and the little tern. The reserve is also home to several species of plants and flowers, including sea lavender and sea holly. Visitors can explore the reserve on foot or by bike, and there are several guided tours available for those who want to learn more about the local wildlife and flora.

Local Dog Walks

Sea Palling Beach
During Our Recent Stay In Norfolk We Visited Several Beaches And Sea Palling Was By Far Our Favourite. There Are Date Restrictions In Place To The Left Of The Slipway As You Enter The Beach But We Were Ok In Oct. The Sand Is Golden And Expansive And You Can Walk For Miles If You Feel So Inclined. The Photos Attached Were Taken During Two Visits But You Can Get A Feel Of What It Was Like. Waxham Rd Norwich Lancashire NR12 0DX 5.80 miles

Happisburgh Beach
Happpisburgh Beach Is A Great Location For Walking The Dog, Especially When The Tide Is Out! As With Most Beach Walks There Are Restrictions On The Time Of The Year When You Can Exercise Your Dog But We Went At The Beginning Of The Month And Had Free Rein! When The Tide Is Out There Is A Massive Expanse Of Beach Available To Use And Our Lab Coco Had A Great Time. 28 Beach Rd Happisburgh Norwich NR12 0PR 9.77 miles

Mundesley Is Another Great Beach For Walking Your Dog In Norfolk. Access Is Via Quite A Steep Pathway So Bear That In Mind.
