Wells-next-the-Sea
Wells-next-the-Sea is a delightful harbourside town on the Norfolk coast in England, famous for its huge sandy beach and iconic row of multi-coloured, higgledy-piggledy beach huts.
Wells-next-the-Sea is a delight to explore, with lots of places of interest, independent shops, pubs, cafes and places to stay particularly on Staithe Street and Buttlands green. The Quay is a popular place to go crabbing.
It’s a lovely walk along the East Fleet to the beach, where there’s a popular, dog-friendly café, and a large pine forest to explore. Visit nearby Holkham Hall and Estate or take a boat to see the seals at nearby Morston Quay.
