YOUR LOCAL HOLIDAY GUIDE
Things to do in Gorleston-on-Sea
The bay and promenade
Spend a morning on the sand or take a promenade walk beneath the cliff gardens. Beachside cafés and shops offer useful stopping points, so this can be an unhurried outing without needing to organise a full day of paid attractions.
Cliff gardens and the harbour view
Explore the lawns and higher paths for a different view over the beach and harbour entrance. The yacht pond and bandstand add interest around the seafront, while the changing movement of vessels gives you something to watch from an appropriate public viewpoint.
An evening at the theatre
Gorleston's Edwardian theatre brings performances into the holiday mix. Browse the programme before your stay if an evening show appeals, then plan dinner and your return to the caravan around the performance you choose.
Local shops, food & places to browse
The High Street has independent retailers alongside familiar shops, including bakers and a butcher. It is a useful destination for picnic ingredients or a proper self-catering shop, with different choices from the beach-goods outlets along the promenade.
Planning your holiday in Gorleston-on-Sea
The upper gardens, high street and lower seafront are at different levels. Build a route around comfortable access rather than assuming every part of a seaside outing will be flat.

Before you book, check the advert’s address, sleeping arrangements, park facilities and any extra charges with the owner. Use the search filters for features such as decking, a hot tub or a washing machine, and park facilities such as a pool or clubhouse.
