Lowestoft, situated on The Suffolk Coast, is a charming town that is well worth the visit if you’re thinking about enjoying adult weekend breaks in this region. In fact, you’ll find that there are a range of fun-filled adult weekend breaks organised to take place in the nearby Pontins Pakefield resort, some of which are music themed! For those visiting the area, this is the perfect opportunity to explore Lowestoft in between the music and dancing. Read on for some of the regions highlights. The Beach, Promenade and Pier Lowestoft Beach is covered by golden sands and beach huts with a promenade and pier. The pier was constructed in 1903 and stretches out over a distance of 200 metres into the North Sea. Alongside the beach, Victorian houses line the streets – don’t forget your camera so you can capture this postcard-perfect view. This Blue Flag beach has been the recipient of several awards, and the locals believe that it was the inspiration for the composer Benjamin Britten’s first masterpiece. Nature and Wildlife Nature enthusiasts frequent Lowestoft due to the array of wildlife that can be spotted in the great outdoors, including some of the country’s rarest bird species. Likewise, the natural landscape attracts many visitors. Why not explore the neighbouring village of Carlton Colville, home to Suffolk Wildlife Trust reserve and the Carlton and Oulton Marshes? The Scores Trails The Scores Trails are steep lanes that lead to the sea, cutting through the High Street and Whapload Road. They were constructed over time by the people who would journey up and down the slope to Beach Village, which was situated at the bottom of the cliff. These journeys caused the soft rock to wear down and ultimately formed the passages that exist today (12 trails are still visible today, although there are 14 in total). The Broads Oulton Broad stands as the entryway to the Broads National Park. Throughout the year, visitors can participate in water sports or visit the quaint cafés, riverside restaurants and bars. Between the months of April to September, powerboat races take place on the river on Thursday evenings. For those interested in exploring the river at a slower pace, the Broads offer self-drive boats to take a leisurely trip across the water. Originally, this Broad was formed as a flooded depression that was likely created by peat cutting during medieval times. Now, it is protected as a National park and Ramsar Wetland.
