Beach on the Suffolk Coast

About Pakefield Beach

Overview

Pakefield Beach lies on the southern edge of Lowestoft on the Suffolk Coast. It is backed by cliffs with housing and local amenities set above the shoreline.

The beach is a mix of sand and shingle. At low tide, broader areas of sand are exposed, creating space for walking and paddling.

Parking

Pay-and-display parking is available close to the seafront, with additional on-street parking in surrounding roads.

Access

Access is via steps and sloping paths from the clifftop and seafront.

Getting there

Pakefield is accessed via local roads connecting to the A12.
