The lively resort village of Hemsby is located some 8 miles from the larger resort of Gt. Yarmouth.

 For those looking for family entertainment, amusement arcades, discos and seaside gift shops then the resort of Hemsby is the one for you.

Extensive golden beaches are a feature of this part of Norfolk and the beach at Hemsby is no exception.   

The month of September sees Hemsby's annual Longshore ‘Herring Festival.’  Other events during the months of May and October see the clock turned back to the sights and sounds of the 1950's, when the towns hosts the Rock 'n' Roll weekenders event.

Part of this attraction includes a fifties marketplace for clothes, records and the furniture of that era, a talent show and jam session, and no we are not talking about preserves.

There are frequent bus services from Hemsby to Great Yarmouth town centre.

Caister Castle, Thrigby Wildlife Park and a 18 hole golf course are all within a 10 mile radius.
