The car park is liable to flooding and is coastal, so please be aware of ground conditions."

Brief description

"Morston Quay is situated just within the shelter of Blakeney Point. The point forms a wonderful backdrop to the quay area, with it's salt marshes in the foreground. Perfect for keen bird watchers, who might just catch a glimpse of brent geese, little egrets, spoonbills, marsh harriers and many more. During the winter months, take a trip with one of the boat operators to see the seals at Blakeney Point but remember to keep your distance.

On site is also a refreshments kiosk, serving up hot and cold drinks, cakes, sandwiches, crisps and snacks. With outdoors seating available, you can relax and watch the world go by. Why not fuel up before a walk on the coastal path and watch the sunset over the marshes, covered in a purple carpet of sea lavender in the summer months.

Morston has something for everyone and is a perfect destination to start your exploration of the Norfolk Coast."
