Eccles-on-Sea was an ancient fishing village in north-east Norfolk, which has now virtually all swept into the North Sea. Its beautiful beach stretches for miles in both directions. A couple of miles away (as the crow flies and on foot - but five miles in the car) is Sea Palling beach, a popular Blue Flag Norfolk beach which is not too overcrowded, yet has amusements, cafes and amenities set back from the beach, making it an ideal family destination.
