Day Trip Great Yarmouth

pandora205

We (three adults) have a coach trip booked to Great Yarmouth on Sat 30th August. We're hoping the weather will be good and we can go to the beach but what else can we do? We'll have about 5 hours there.

Thanks

Depends what your looking for really.
It has the Pleasure Beach (Fun Fair), Circus (2 shows daily), 2 Piers, The Marina Centre (Wave swimming pool,sport centre and indoor rollerskating -showing its age abit though!) A couple of good crazy golfs. If you know what time you are going to be there you can book a boat trip to Scroby Sands to see the seals and the wind turbines (tide/weather dependant). There is a market in the town (10 mins walk from seafront). A couple of museums, a reasonable model village. Lots of Amusements!!!! Cinema, Ten-pin bowling. You can get horse and cart rides along the sea front or a land train will take you from one end of Yarmouth to the other.
The circus is usually good but not cheap last around 2-2.5 hrs would get tickets prior to performance as gets rather hectic.
Just google Great Yarmouth and find more info and prob find discount vouchers.
