Unofficial nudist beach, with dunes and very sandy beach, can be windy, so take a windbreak. Is also an nature reserve/RSPB so plenty of feathered birds to watch, but please be careful of any nesting areas.
Please keep the beach clean, take your litter home.
Nearest services are a cafe and toilets and shop at the carpark in Winterton-On-Sea
Any comments from people have visited welcome

Winterton Dunes
My wife and I used to visit Sea Palling and Horsey - a bit further along the coast and enjoyed many weekends sunbathing, and when a bit quiter, swimming naked. We also visited Winterton and found it equally nice. Most people on the beach did not venture very far from the car park so, by walking along the beach for a while you could easily find a spot to shed your kit. Swimming naked was also possible at times.
There is a nice pub in Winterton; we mean to return and stay there for a while, using it as a base to explore the Norfolk coast.
I agree with your comments
I agree with your comments about this pub, excpet that there was a time when you had a long wait for the food to appear, but I think this might have improved recently. The cafe is a delight - very friendly and surprisingly big menu for such a small place! Very dog friendly too!
Visited Winterton and Horsey
Visited Winterton and Horsey Dunes on three occasions last week and encountered just 3 nudists. Had a chat with one guy who had been sunbathing a lot and had said he had seen others, including a couple while he was there. Lovely beach and if you are prepeared to walk a while you will find some great spots to sunbathe or even walk naked. It's the first time I've been nude on a beach in UK for years
Yes great spot for walk and
Yes great spot for walk and dip. Just surprised there were so few nudies there. I hope to get there this week - probably early Wednesday.
Also its such a large
Also its such a large possible area especially if you include the dunes and the Waxham end naturist may end up spread out and not realise who else is about.I was at the Waxham end a few weeks ago and only saw, and talked with, one other naturist. There were just a few clothed beach goers and loads of seals. I am getting more bold these days and happy to go for a nude swim even if there are people say 250 yards away.
I went to Winterton last week
I went to Winterton last week on a hot day but a touch less so on the coast. Unusually for me I paid for parking at Winterton and walk north for a bit over a mile (30 mins) - I continued for about half a mile north a bit later. There were about 15 naturists spread out over quite a stretch of beach; all solo males except one couple partially hidden in the dunes. One guy I spoke to had parked for free at Waxham and walked south.The sea was just the right temperature. Great place and worth the hike.
My local beach! Well, a short
My local beach! Well, a short drive away. Corton is easier and free to park and a short walk but not as pretty as Winterton dunes. Definitely worth the walk from either Horsey, Waxham or Winterton village/cafe. also try Poppy's tea rooms in the Post Office in the village,as well as Dunes Cafe and the pub, Fisherman's Return is still going strong and serving great food. It does get busy so be prepared to wait a while. 'Slow You Down' as we say in Norfolk!
I was here last Thursday
I was here last Thursday morning (26th May). Although the sun was shining it was cool but not cold as the wind was blowing a bit (which I quite like). I talked with a guy in the dunes - the only other naturist as far as I could tell - who told me that naturists were few this time of year but will pick up later though the numbers here are generally on the lighter side. Car parking on the beach front (Winterton) is expensive at £7 for the day, I was early and parked in the village. I would definately go again if I'm in the area. Poppy's Tea Room is still going.
Dunes cafe is no more: swept
Dunes cafe is no more: swept away in a storm last year.
sadly the dunes cafe is no
sadly the dunes cafe is no more, washed away and so has much of the fab beach at hemsby - winterton. still worth the visit though
sailing my way
We much preferred Winterton
We much preferred Winterton on a visit in 2021 on a scorching day to Holkham which was disappointing because of the small area of dry sand with expensive car parking, yes I know about the nature reserves, we have walked there on a few occasions but via the coast bus without paying for the car, and also because of a real public nuisance who imposed himself on us. Apart from the cafe I believe our experience still applies, the car park was large and quite reasonable, and a 15 minute walk to the left past the bulk of textile beachgoers brought us to a quieter spot and plenty of space near the dunes at the back, (not in them of course). We had a glorious day and not pestered at all. Other half walked further up the beach for a stretch and saw some seals towards Horsey poking their heads looking around and seeing what was going on. Well recommended.
