The picturesque harbour at Burnham Overy Staithe is where Admiral Nelson learnt to sail. If you don’t mind a walk to the beach, it’s worth taking the mile long ridge path which leads to a steep sand dune. Climb up the sand dune and the beach lies below. If you are after a longer walk, you can walk all the way to Holkham and on to Wells next the Sea, either along the beach or through the pine trees. Good for a long circular walk, finished off with a well earned drink at The Hero in Burnham Overy Staithe.

A pretty coastal village with a busy harbour which used to be predominantly a fishing village, but is now a very popular place for sailors, walkers and bird-watchers, with the area being designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty. There is an excellent local gastro-pub called The Hero which re-opened after extensive refurbishment and has quickly gained a great reputation. During the summer there is a ferry out to the nature reserve of Scolt Head Island, a bird and seal sanctuary. For the more energetic it takes about 30 minutes to walk along the coastal footpath across the marshes out to the vast expanse of sandy beach which is quite often deserted. The large black Burnham Overy windmill dominates the skyline for miles around and on the outskirts of village, there is a fine collection of 18th-century mill-buildings next to the river Burn.

Great Pub, boat trip to stunning beach, fabulous walk to beach along a coastal path, kayaks to hire and great crabbing.

2-3 hours either side of low tide, you can fall out of the car (free car parking!) and paddle straight across the creek for great sand and safe paddling/swimming. No long walk required! For older children: the walk out on the sea wall is great, 1 1/2 miles to a fantastic beach and huge dunes. Or at high tide, get the ferry to the Island from the jetty (high season and weekends only) in front of the Chandlery and walk back at low tide. Or vice versa.
