Alternatively, immerse yourself in the underwater world at SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth, just a 3-minute walk from the hotel. Our central location means you're perfectly placed to explore all that Great Yarmouth has to offer.

For lunch, grab some delicious fish and chips from one of the many restaurants along the seafront.

As evening approaches, enjoy a meal at one of Great Yarmouth's diverse restaurants, offering everything from traditional pub fare to international cuisine. In the evening, why not catch a show at the Britannia Pier Theatre or enjoy the attractions along the Golden Mile?

Day 2: Exploring the Norfolk Broads

No trip to Norfolk is complete without exploring the famous Norfolk Broads. Just a short 3-mile drive from the St George Hotel, you'll find yourself immersed in a network of navigable rivers and lakes, teeming with wildlife and offering stunning scenery. Hire a boat for the day and explore the waterways at your own pace, or join a guided boat tour for a relaxing and informative experience.

Pack a picnic to enjoy on the banks of the river, or stop at one of the many charming riverside pubs for a hearty lunch. Keep an eye out for the diverse birdlife that calls the Broads home, including herons, kingfishers, and marsh harriers. Wroxham, known as the 'Capital of the Broads', is a great place to start your adventure, offering a wide range of boat hire options and riverside attractions.

Day 3: Coastal Adventures North or South

Norfolk's coastline is incredibly diverse, offering stunning beaches, charming seaside towns, and dramatic cliffs. Depending on your preference, you can head north or south from Great Yarmouth for a day of coastal exploration.

Heading north, you could visit the charming town of Cromer, famous for its crabs and Victorian pier. Enjoy a traditional crab sandwich, take a stroll along the pier, or visit the Cromer Museum to learn about the town's history. Further north, you'll find the dramatic cliffs of Hunstanton, offering stunning views across the Wash. The unique striped cliffs and vast sandy beaches make Hunstanton a popular destination for families.

Alternatively, heading south from Great Yarmouth, you could explore the picturesque village of Southwold, with its colourful beach huts, independent shops, and Adnams brewery. Take a walk along the pier, visit the Southwold lighthouse, or enjoy a pint of locally brewed beer at one of the town's traditional pubs.
