The pine fringed coastline of Holkham has ten miles of sands known as the Holkham Meals.

The easiest access is via the lane opposite the Holkham Estates main entrance on the coast road, there is a sentry box where you will usually be charged for parking fee. You can drive quite close to the beach and park on the grass verges on both sides of the lane. You can then proceed on foot onto one of the nicest beaches of the North Norfolk coast.

A popular place in summer for the family with its extensive golden sands, at low tide a number of pretty purple and orange shells.

At all other times of the year bird watchers congregate to admire the huge flocks of winter migrating birds.
