North West Norfolk is unique with a mix of wonderfully unspoilt coastline and countryside, history and heritage and family fun and entertainment.. A Seaside for All Seasons The coastline, much of it an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) boasts miles of untouched beaches, dunes and marshland and is a haven for birds and wild life and supports two RSPB nature reserves Titchwell and Snettisham which are  particularly popular with birdwatchers in the winter months.  It is the perfect place to relax.

Alternatively, for a traditional family seaside holiday, you couldn't find better than Hunstanton, overlooking The Wash, with its clean, safe beaches and miles of sand, shops, restaurants and award-wining leisure resorts. Hunstanton boasts the Princess Theatre with its year-round programme of entertainment and the Oasis Leisure Centre for family fun both in and out of the water.  There is also a funfair, adventure golf and the Sealife Centre.

The Discover West Norfolk website is organised by the Discover West Norfolk group of attractions. For more information about this group, please see the Who we are button above.

Glorious Countryside Take time out from the beach to explore the gently rolling countryside dotted with farms and historic flint and carrstone villages like Burnham Market, Thornham and Snettisham.  Cycle through linseed and poppy fields on our quiet country lanes and sample fresh seafoods and other local produce in our friendly local pubs and restaurants.  Don't miss the the King William IV or the Lifeboat Inn.
