Weybourne, Norfolk – Coastal Village on the Norfolk Coast Path

Shingle Beach, Open Sea, and Low Coastal Cliffs

Weybourne is a coastal village on the north Norfolk coast along the Norfolk Coast Path, set within the Norfolk Coast National Landscape between Salthouse and Sheringham. Walking into the village, the route follows the shingle beach and sea wall, where the open shoreline begins to rise gently toward low cliffs and more varied coastal terrain.

The settlement sits just inland from the beach, with quiet lanes leading down to the shore and the coast path running directly past the village. Walking here shifts from level shingle and sea wall paths to slightly more undulating ground as the coastline starts to change character east of Weybourne.

Weybourne offers useful services for walkers. There is a pub, a village shop with café, and accommodation in and around the village, making it a practical place to stop or stay on this section of the route. Rail access on the Bittern Line also provides a convenient link to Sheringham and Holt.

Beyond Weybourne, the Norfolk Coast Path continues east toward Sheringham beneath low cliffs and along more enclosed coastal paths, while to the west it returns to flatter shingle and saltmarsh landscapes toward Salthouse and Cley. The walking becomes more varied as the coast begins to rise.
