Heacham Beach

Heacham Sands is split into the North and South beaches and is surrounded by holiday parks.

Although the beach is on the Norfolk East coast, it faces West into the bay. This means the sea can be calmer than the open sea of other nearby Norfolk beaches, and also means you can get some spectacular sunsets.

Both Heacham North and South beaches are dog-friendly, although the South beach asks for dogs to be kept on leads during the nesting seasons, between April and the end of August.

Popular for outdoor activities including jet skis, kitesurfing and windsurfing.

Facilities include toilets, parking on both North and South beach areas, beach huts, cafe and shops in the town.
