Family Fun on the Golden Mile

No trip to Great Yarmouth is complete without spending time on the famous Golden Mile. The Bank Holiday atmosphere elevates the experience, with street performers, bustling arcades, and the irresistible aroma of fish and chips filling the air. The Pleasure Beach is a must-visit for thrill-seekers, with its iconic wooden rollercoaster and a range of exciting rides for all ages. You can easily walk there from St George Hotel in about 8 minutes.

For younger children, the SEA LIFE Centre offers a fascinating glimpse into the underwater world. Get up close with sharks, turtles, and colorful fish, and learn about marine conservation. This is just a few minutes walk from St George Hotel!

Don't forget the traditional seaside activities! Build sandcastles on the beach, take a donkey ride, or enjoy a Punch and Judy show. The Golden Mile is the heart of Great Yarmouth's Bank Holiday celebrations.

Beyond the Beach: Exploring Local Events

While the Golden Mile is a hub of activity, be sure to explore the wider Great Yarmouth area for unique Bank Holiday events. Check local listings for special festivals, fairs, and markets taking place during your visit. These events often showcase local crafts, food, and entertainment, providing a taste of Norfolk's rich culture.

Keep an eye out for events at the Hippodrome Circus, one of only three surviving purpose-built circus buildings in the UK. They often host special Bank Holiday performances that are sure to delight the whole family.

For those seeking a more relaxed experience, consider a boat trip on the Norfolk Broads. Explore the tranquil waterways, spot wildlife, and enjoy the stunning scenery. The Broads are only a short drive from Great Yarmouth, making it a perfect day trip. And after a busy day, you can relax in your comfy room at St George Hotel.
