England's Suffolk Coast is sandwiched between Essex and Norfolk and boasts beautiful beaches. History buffs, adventurers, and beach bums will all find something to love here.
Suffolk's beach towns have it all, from a mess of color on Aldeburgh's rainbow seafront to Lowestoft's technicolor beach huts to the topsy-turvy cottages in Lavenham.
Some of the most beautiful beaches in Suffolk include Covehithe, known for its driftwood and solitude, and Dunwich Beach, a shingle beach with a pebbly coastline.
Orford Ness Beach is particularly isolated, reached only by ferry, and Southwold Beach is the quintessential English beach with its colorful beach huts that overlook the ocean.
For more British charm, head to Suffolk villages like Snape Maltings or Thorpeness. History buffs should visit Sutton-Hoo, a famous royal burial ground.
