Cromer

Cromer is a traditional seaside town in Norfolk, England, best known for having the world’s last end-of-pier theatre and home of the eponymous crab which live on the world’s longest chalk reef, just offshore.

Cromer became a popular holiday spot when the Victorians brought the railway. Today it is on the Bittern Line from Norwich.

Take in a show at the Pavilion Theatre, visit Cromer Museum to learn about the prehistoric Deep History Coast, discover National Trust Felbrigg Hall, have a round at Royal Cromer Golf Club, head up to the top of St Peter and St Paul church for great views or just while away time with fish and chips on the clifftop prom.
