Situated on the corner next to the Pier Gardens cafe (highly recomended) in Gorleston-on-Sea. It's not far from the beach, nice walks along the front, or come and watch the boats going in and out of the harbour from the pier. You can fish from the pier into the deep water to the south or kayak-surf when the waves are right. The Pavilion Theatre has regular shows right throughout the year.
