Coastal

About

Coastal ward stretches across a significant portion of the North Norfolk coastline, encompassing a series of villages and expansive saltmarshes. The area is characterised by its exposed position against the North Sea, with a landscape dominated by shingle ridges, sandy beaches, and low-lying agricultural land. Key settlements include Weybourne and Salthouse, which are positioned between the coast and the main A149 road.

A defining element is the Blakeney Point National Nature Reserve, a long spit of shingle and sand reaching seaward. This dynamic environment is a major habitat for breeding and migratory birds, particularly seals that haul out on the sandbanks. The area's economy is closely tied to tourism, coastal defence, and traditional fishing, with the constantly shifting shoreline presenting an ongoing challenge.
