Great Yarmouth in Winter: Things to Do Off-Season

Great Yarmouth in Winter

Great Yarmouth might be famous for its summer season, but winter brings its own charm. With fewer crowds, lower prices and a different atmosphere, the off-season can be a wonderful time to visit.

Indoor Attractions

The Time and Tide Museum is open year-round and makes a perfect rainy day activity. The Sea Life Centre is also open throughout winter, offering indoor marine exploration. Ten-pin bowling at Wellington Pier is another great wet weather option.

Bracing Beach Walks

There is something magical about a winter beach walk. The wide sandy beaches are virtually empty, the air is crisp and fresh, and the dramatic skies make for stunning photography. Wrap up warm and enjoy the coast at its most peaceful.

Horsey Seals

Between November and February, hundreds of grey seals haul out at Horsey Beach, just 30 minutes north of Great Yarmouth. Watching the seal pups is one of Norfolk's most remarkable wildlife experiences and it is completely free.

Yarmouth Stadium

Greyhound racing at the stadium runs all year round, providing exciting evening entertainment whatever the weather.
