Gorleston-on-Sea, located in East Anglia on Norfolk's east coast, lies just south of the bustling tourist hub of Great Yarmouth, separated by the River Yare. While smaller than its neighbour, Gorleston offers similar charms and attractions that draw in visitors from across the country during the summer holidays. Famed for its historical buildings and beautiful beach, notable landmarks include the Pavilion Theatre and other impressive Victorian architecture. Boasting well maintained upper and lower promenades not found in Great Yarmouth, it’s easily accessible from Lowestoft to the south and Norwich inland via the A47.

At the mouth of the River Yare lies Gorleston’s lower promenade, a vibrant tourist hotspot all year-round. This area features a small park with a bandstand, a boating lake, and several restaurants, including the visually impressive Pier Hotel. Visitors can also enjoy a quick play in the Marine Arcade, conveniently located near ice cream and fish-and-chips vendors. While ample parking is available throughout, a short stroll leads to the impressive Pavilion Theatre and Gorleston’s main family entertainment venue, the Ocean Bay Arcade, where families can enjoy ticket redemption games and win a great selection of prizes. The town centre, situated along the aptly named High Street, offers a variety of shops, including staples like Greggs and Wetherspoons. For gaming enthusiasts, Crown Slots and Magic City Casino Gaming Lounge provide adult casino gaming options. Top tip: if coming from the south check out Hopton Holiday village which is just south of Gorleston and include two fantastic amusement arcades called Stardust Amusements and Bubbles Arcade.

The River Yare’s inlet forms a natural break, which provides Gorleston with a lovely triangle shaped beach that has lovely rich golden sand. Tall, established cliffs can offer shelter from the wind, while the well-paved upper and lower promenades are perfect for walkers and cyclists. Beach huts line the farther end of the beach, and a café with ample seating provides a spot to relax. For those venturing up to the upper cliffs, a local ice cream van often awaits with refreshing treats. SO next time the family is heading to Great Yarmouth, why not stop off and discover this lovely local hideaway that offers some great entertainment.
