1. Escape the crowds at Kessingland Beach.Kessingland Beach is less commercial than neighbouring Lowestoft or Southwold, making it the ideal place to enjoy the quiet and explore nature. It’s a beach that is actually growing, protected from erosion by a combination of shingle and maram grass that was planted by author H. Rider Haggard, who spent his summers there.

2. Discover some of the UKs rarest birds.
Walk on the beach keeping the sea on your left and after a few miles you’ll arrive at Benacre National Nature Reserve, a great place to spot migrating birds in the spring and autumn.
3. Take a trip to the African savannah.
On the opposite side of Kessingland is Africa Alive! - one hundred acres of parkland that is home to giraffes, rhinos, flamingos, lions, meerkats, and a hundred other exotic species that you’d never see without going on an expensive safari. One of East Anglia’s most popular tourist destinations it’s open all year round.
