Fabulous family fun and activities in Norfolk this Easter
Highlights of Norfolk

There’s so much to see and do, including Easter Egg hunts across the county, special Broads tours and railway experiences and Great Yarmouth’s traditional Easter Fair.
Here’s some of the best things to do when you visit Norfolk at Easter…
Head to the seaside

You might be able to break out the bucket and spade on our 93 miles of coast, or just head to Great Yarmouth where all the fabulous seafront attractions are ready to welcome you again. The East coast’s top resort has plenty of indoor and outdoor fun, not least on the Golden Mile. Check out the Easter Fair on the Market Place or the Pirates Live spectacle at The Hippodrome.
Norfolk has two more coastal resorts with plenty of things to do – Cromer with its Victorian pier and brill crabbing and Hunstanton, from where you can visit the seals.

Attractions galore!

Norfolk has more family-friendly fun attractions than Easter eggs in an extremely large Easter egg shop. There are adventure and nature parks, sea life centres and lots of zoos. At Banham Zoo you can visit the newly-opened sea lion enclosure.
Wonderful wildlife

The migrant geese and swans have returned home, but now’s the time for our native birds to come to the fore. You might have noticed the dawn birdsong! Look out for buzzards sky dancing, the water dance of the great crested grebe, rooks looking to build new nests (rookeries, as they’re called) and the buzz of bees. On land the Mad March Hares are bounding along, and the amphibians are getting amorous.
Oh yes, and the first swallows will be arriving too. Guaranteed to make you smile.
Put a Spring in your step

You see what we did there? Now’s a great time to put on your sturdy walking shoes, grab the dog’s lead, and head out into our country parks and on our wonderful trails. Cycling on our Quiet Lanes is a joy too!
Gardener's world

There are some magnificent gardens in Norfolk to visit and get some inspiration. Take a look at some of our favourites…
Our very own Downton Abbeys

The dust sheets have been removed, everything’s spick and span… now’s the time to see how the other half used to live. Norfolk has a plethora of Downton Abbeys to discover, not least the Queen’s private residence. At Houghton Hall, there’s the added bonus of a fab Damien Hirst exhibition.

Get on the right track

Norfolk has a number of traditional steam railways to enjoy, many of them putting on special Easter events. What better way to see the beautiful Norfolk countryside.
Be a flaneur in our Fine City

There's no better time to explore Norwich on a Bank Holiday when there's little traffic and you really get a chance to wander aimlessly, or be a flaneur as the French have it. And, if you so feel, there are wonderful cathedrals and churches to discover.
Rain doesn't stop play

Not when you visit Norfolk, it doesn’t! Bear in mind Norfolk has the best overall climate in the country, but sometimes, just sometimes, there’s a little precipitation from somewhere else. In which case, don’t fret, we have lots of things to do on a rainy day…
