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 13.15 miles
