About

Gorleston South & Beach occupies the southern edge of Great Yarmouth, centred on a wide, gently curving sandy bay. The area is defined by its expansive esplanade, which overlooks the beach and the mouth of the River Yare. A long pier extends from the southern end, offering views across the water towards the port facilities. The green space of the Links provides a buffer between the residential streets and the coastline.

The beach itself is notably wide at low tide, creating a broad stretch of sand popular for walking and family recreation. The area functions as a quieter coastal suburb, with local amenities serving the community. The Pavilion Theatre, a prominent seafront building, hosts a variety of performances and events throughout the year.
