The sand and shingle beach
backs on to the North Norfolk cliffs. Rock pools are revealed at
low tide. The lifeboat launches from the end of the pier.
Cromer is a popular destination for families and
it is ideal for swimming and surfing.
Pier and beach
The Victorians made Cromer a popular resort and many of the buildings
date back to that period. The town has expanded rapidly during the
last 50 years.
The beach is managed by North Norfolk District Council and is one
of three beaches in the county to feature in the Marine Conservation
Society's Good Beach Guide.
On the seafront you will find toilets, beach
huts (theres a waiting list if you want to buy) and a public
shower.
Close by are cafés, ice cream sellers and amusement arcades.
There's a promenade together with a pier housing a theatre and gardens.
The town centre shops are nearby.
You can take a pleasant walk along the cliff-tops to the lighthouse.
Lifeguards are on duty from the spring bank holiday
weekend in May to the end of the school summer holidays, in September.
There is also a lifeboat station and a first aid point.
Disabled access
Toilets for people with disabilities are available.
There are some ramps on to the beach but the level of the beach
is constantly changing, so these may not always be usable.
Orange badge holders can get free car parking close to the beach.
