Sea Palling is a small east‑coast village in North Norfolk, Norfolk, England, set along a low coastline of sand, shingle ridges and dunes facing the North Sea. The stretch of coast here is part of the wider Norfolk Coast AONB and is noted for its birdlife and open, uncrowded beaches; it also illustrates classic east‑coast issues of erosion and flood risk, which prompted substantial sea‑defence work after mid‑20th‑century storms and flooding.
Historically a small fishing and farming community, Sea Palling today relies heavily on seasonal tourism - holiday cottages, caravan parks and beach visitors - while retaining a tight‑knit village feel with a pub and local events. Its coastal setting attracts birdwatchers and walkers as well as those interested in maritime and coastal heritage, making it a quiet but well‑visited pocket of the Norfolk coast.
