Cromer Beach, Norfolk
Set against the backdrop of a traditional Victorian seaside resort, this sand and shingle beach is a favourite spot for swimming and surfing, and for families wanting to take an easy stroll along the pier. It’s particularly famous for the quality of the crabs, which have been fished in the area for centuries, and visitors can go crabbing off the pier for free.
