Map of the UK

Coastal ward sits along the seaward edge of North Norfolk in Norfolk, England, fronting the North Sea. The area is defined by sandy beaches, dunes, saltmarsh and stretches of protected coastline that attract seabirds and other wildlife, and much of it lies alongside the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the long-distance Norfolk Coast Path.

Locally the economy and culture revolve around a mix of tourism, fishing and agriculture, with Victorian-era seaside heritage, lifeboat stations and wartime defences still visible in places. Like much of the Norfolk coast it faces issues such as coastal erosion and seasonal pressures from holiday homes, while conservation and outdoor recreation remain important to residents and visitors alike.
