Wild, untamed seascapes, shifting coastlines, freshly caught seafood on Blue-Flag beaches, meandering waterways, Constable countryside, grassy heathland, ruined abbeys and riverside hamlets - East Anglia is an area that has been gaining in popularity as a UK holiday destination for some time: from the small but bustling cities of Cambridge and Norwich, to the pretty market towns of Woodbridge and Lavenham, and the world famous waterways of the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads, East Anglia offers stunning scenery, great local produce and fascinating history.

Discover the world's smallest pub in Bury St Edmunds, take part in the world-renowned international crabbing championships in Walberswick, explore the coastal town of Dunwich that is gradually disappearing into the sea and enjoy some of the most beautiful and unspoiled beaches on the British coastline.
