Explore Great Yarmouth

Known for

The Golden Mile (one of England's finest seaside amusement strips), the medieval row houses, the herring fishing heritage, the Time and Tide Museum, and a Norfolk seaside town of real historic depth beyond the candyfloss

A little history

Great Yarmouth was one of medieval England's most important ports — the herring capital of Europe. The medieval Rows — 145 narrow lanes between two main streets — are the most extensive surviving medieval street pattern in England. Dickens set parts of David Copperfield here.

📍 Local tip

The Time and Tide Museum tells the herring and maritime story brilliantly. The medieval Rows are extraordinary and most visitors miss them entirely. The beach and Golden Mile for the seaside experience.
