Mundesley Beach

About Mundesley Beach

Mundesley is a small village resort on the North Norfolk coast with a long sandy beach divided by breakwaters. It's quieter than nearby Cromer, and sea glass guides credit its long history and old shipwrecks offshore with a steady supply of beach glass. Collectors say you can easily fill a hand in an hour.

Sea glass at Mundesley Beach

Mostly clear and white glass, found by the breakwaters; pink and yellow pieces have also been reported. Walk the tide line after high tide.

Visiting Mundesley Beach

Safety

Check the tide times before you go and head out on a falling tide, so you're never cut off. Keep away from the bottom of cliffs, wear sturdy shoes on rocks, and only take sea glass and other man-made rubbish: pebbles, sand and shells should stay on the beach.
