Home to classic seaside amusements, seafront play parks, swimming pool with fitness centre, dine-in cafes and take-aways, traditional pubs and miles of sandy shoreline. On The Naze, nature lovers can enjoy a visit to the historic Naze Tower, strolling on the cliff top and searching for fossils on the beach below. Nearby Hamford Water National Nature Reserve, a haven for walkers and birdwatchers alike. A trip on the backwaters to the creeks which are home to colonies of both grey and common seals never cease to thrill visitors.

In the opposite direction you can stroll from Frinton-on-Sea to the Holland Haven Nature Reserve. A trip to Colchester, the oldest recorded town in Britain (now a city), is just a short drive away. Explore the historic Colchester Castle and Roman walls. Visit the Arts Centre, a variety of museums or just enjoy great shopping or relaxing in the town’s many restaurants, bars, and spa facilities.
