Wiveton is a small coastal village in North Norfolk, Norfolk, England, tucked on the estuary of the River Glaven between Blakeney and Cley-next-the-Sea. Its position beside salt marshes and the mudflats of Blakeney Point makes it popular with birdwatchers and walkers on the Norfolk Coast Path, and the village retains a small quay where local boats still work the estuary.

With medieval roots and a mix of flint cottages and Georgian houses, the local economy blends farming and marine trades with a strong seasonal tourism trade - holiday lets, cafés and small craft outlets serving visitors drawn to the wildlife and coastal scenery. Community life is quietly active, helped by local events and gatherings and nearby venues such as Wiveton Hall that host occasional concerts and fairs.
