We visit Great Yarmouth in Norfolk for a tour of the seafront from the Pier to the Pleasure Beach.
Great Yarmouth (often just Yarmouth) is a classic English seaside town just a short trip from Norwich and close to other seaside towns.
A Haven for Beach Lovers: Its main draw is undoubtedly the long stretch of golden sand, perfect for soaking up the sun, building sandcastles with the family, or taking a refreshing dip in the North Sea.
Family-Friendly Fun: For thrill-seekers, the iconic Pleasure Beach and Joyland amusement parks offer a kaleidoscope of rides and attractions, catering to all ages and preferences. The lively Golden Mile, a bustling promenade stretching along the coastline, adds to the excitement with its array of shops, arcades, and food stalls, offering something for everyone.
Beyond the Beach: Delve into the town's fascinating past by exploring the well-preserved sections of the medieval town walls, remnants of Yarmouth's rich maritime history. Pay homage to local heroes at the Nelson Museum dedicated to the life of Admiral Horatio Nelson, or delve deeper into the town's heritage at the Time and Tide Museum.
More Than Just Seaside: Escape the beach buzz and explore the serene beauty of the Norfolk Broads National Park, accessible through boat trips from the town. For an exciting underwater adventure, the SEA LIFE aquarium allows you to come face-to-face with diverse marine life, including playful penguins and majestic sharks.

Thank you for taking us around beautiful Great Yarmouth. My late Aunt lived just outside the town in the early 80s and I had my holidays with her in 1982 and 1983. I travelled on my Honda C90 from my home in Lancashire. Happy happy times.

I used to love Joyland when I was a kid in the 60s, especially the snails. We took our kids there when they were young and they loved the snails as well (as did I, every bit as an adult as I did as a child!). When they were older, we took them to the Pleasure Beach and enjoyed the Roller Coaster. None of us like the ones that spin you round and upside down so it was ideal for us.

Thank you for a pleasant video. And thank you for the fond memories. Our family lived in Great Yarmouth right across the road from the model Village (Seafield Close ) between 1957 until 1964 now viewing this video of yours from Vancouver. Good to see it was busy,, but I’m afraid it’s still a little rundown.😊😊😊

Its a lovely video. Just one thing though. I know its too late for this video but that wasn't the Pleasure Beach at the end, that was only the Pleasure Beach Gardens. If you do another one this year can you walk up a little bit further to the Pleasure Beach itself please?

@GimbalWalkTV 3 ай бұрын

Yes absolutely - I'm back there soon so stay tuned and will do that for you
