Map of the UK

Walcott is a small coastal village on the North Norfolk coast of Norfolk, England, sitting between Mundesley and Happisburgh. It fronts a long shingle beach with wide views across the North Sea, and the low-lying farmland behind the shore reflects a mix of agriculture and small-scale fishing alongside a local tourism economy based on holiday parks and day-trippers in summer.

The community has a quietly convivial village feel, with local amenities and seasonal events supporting residents and visitors alike, but the settlement is also shaped by the realities of coastal erosion and sea-defence work that influence development, leisure use and livelihoods along this stretch of the Norfolk coast.
