Hemsby has magnificent sandy beaches with sheltered sand dunes. With a funfair, bingo, swimming pools, children`s play areas, supermarkets, gift shops, restaurants and a wide choice of top class evening entertainment, Hemsby is very much a self-contained seaside resort in its own right.

The village, settled and named by Danish invaders, was once an important fishing community which now celebrates its proud history every September with its annual Longshore `Herring Festival`.
Newport adjoins its neighbour Hemsby in offering a splendid selection of holiday caravan and chalet parks with direct access to sandy beaches.
