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 5.62 miles

Location what3words they.believer.overlaid

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 6.22 miles

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

Mousehold Heath Norwich
A Truly Beautiful Place For A Dog Walk. There Are A Few Opened (Heath) Areas And A Lot Of Woods.
