About

Lowestoft Harbour is a working port with both commercial and fishing vessels. The outer harbour provides shelter, while the inner docks handle cargo and boat maintenance. The area is functional, with industrial sheds and warehouses lining the quaysides. The Ness Point promenade marks the UK's most easterly point, characterised by a large circular sculpture and a wind turbine.

Adjacent Kirkley is primarily residential, with terraced housing and local shops along the high street. The area meets the sea at Kirkley Beach, a stretch of sand backed by a concrete promenade and greenspace. The former Royal Naval Patrol Service memorial is situated here, commemorating the local fishermen who served during wartime.
