The village has a rich history, dating back to the Roman era, and is home to a number of historic landmarks and attractions.

One of the most notable landmarks in The Port of Felixstowe is the Felixstowe Ferry Golf Club. This historic golf course was founded in 1880 and is one of the oldest in the country.
