Visit Cromer

Cromer piles on the seaside charm with its stately Victorian pier, theatre and sweeping promenade, yet for all that you’ll discover this harbour town remains endearingly authentic.

Head down to the Blue Flag award-winning beach and alongside the beach huts, funfair rides and ice cream parlours you’ll see traditional fishing boats drawing off the sands on a hunt for famous Cromer Crab. The chalk seabed that lies off the coast lends the crabs a tender, sweet flavour, which you can taste for yourself at Cromer’s excellent selection of restaurants.

The town’s relationship with the sea is explored at Cromer Lifeboat Station. Situated at the end of the pier, next to the popular Pavilion Theatre, it provides the opportunity to see the lifeboats up-close and learn about the brave volunteers who work here. The most decorated RNLI service member of all time is celebrated at the nearby Henry Blogg Museum.
