It's suffolks only beach that really works, Norfolk is way better you need a very big NE swell for it to work. Watch the river tide can be vvvvvvv dangerous, the break when it (very rarley works) is 50 meters out to sea, only works on a v low tide. Its a sand bar. Not a place to travel too just if you have a board take a look. Lots of tourists on the beach in summer time. Dirty water.
