Just in front of the KOOLUNGA HOUSE. Built in 1826 for John Garnham, naval officer under name of Hill House. After fighting against Napoleon, spent the rest of his life on this seaside. Family donated for public enjoyment and personal quietude.

Nice cycling area. Wide seafront that can be a good place to learn cycling. Bring more kids and little bicycles.

The best view down the full expanse of the huge sands is from the corner of Cliff Hill and Avondale Road at the northern end of the beach

The Rivers Yare and Waveney are two of the Broads' great rivers, along with the River Bure. Here, these two great watercourses meet, flowing into Breydon Water. Around 2,000 years ago, this would've been part of the Great Estuary, a vast estuary with extensive mudflats. In Roman times, boats would've been able to sail down the Yare as far as Caistor St Edmund and large ships would have been able to follow the Waveney all the way to Bungay. The nearby Roman fort at Burgh Castle was built to protect this important waterway.

Gorleston is just to the south of Great Yarmouth, but should not be overlooked in favour of its better known neighbour. Gorleston has a huge bay, riverside and a sandy beach stretching into the distance below cliff gardens and a promenade. TripAdvisor has named Gorleston as 8th in the Best Beaches in the UK.
