A short walk from the front of the bungalow is the sea front. The village of Bacton is protected from the sea by a sea wall which runs eastwards all the way to Walcott. The sandy beach is accessed down a flight of permanent steps.

During the summer months the beach is segregated into two areas. Dogs can be walked along the beach from the steps eastwards towards walcott but are not allowed on the west section of beach from the steps to the far side of the village.

The beach changes from week to week and these changes often result in pools being left behind when the tide goes out. The pools are great for children to play in, paddling, swimming, shrimping or building dams to prevent the water leaking out back into the sea. The bungalow is equipped with buckets spades etc. which can be used to make sand castles or if you are really artistic even sand sculptures.

When the tide is out the sand is firm under foot and is therefore ideal for walking or if you prefer you can walk along the promenade at the bottom of the sea wall.

One of the most popular pastimes for visitors to the bungalow is beach combing, To find out more and to see some of the items found, check out our beach combing page.
