Hunstanton's true geological wonder lies in its red and white striped cliffs, formed over millions of years.

Hunstanton IS a lovely seaside town, first time I’ve seen the tide out so far. Away from the seafront is special also.
I need to explore there more in that case!
I will go back in the summer ❤️
wow alot has changed in the last 30 years since I last went there, as the boating lake is filled in..
Just let my mum watch this she 87 has dementia was born and lived there she now with me in yarmouth l allso was born there mum loved the video so thank you she said one word light house gramdad a lot of years ago was lighthouse keeper and lived in cottage next to it lots of years ago you put a smile on hrr face x
That's amazing! Lovely to hear
Sorry to hear about her illness - say hello from me and give her a hug!
Awesome video, I’m coming to Hunstanton in April for a Motorcycle charity ride out weekend and this video has really impressed me with the seaside town that it is. 😊
Ah great stuff - you'll have a lovely time
Enjoy!
I love Hunstanton . Its so relaxed and the sunsets are breathtaking . Great video
Couldn't agree more!
This was a very Awesome, Amazing and Magnificent walk Thank You.
💖💖🇬🇧🇬🇧💖💖
Thank you very much ❤️
👍👍👍
Great video but hate the music, would much prefer to listen to the natural seaside sounds and hear the sea, the music really detracts from the lovely video
I totally agree
Whenever I watch one of these videos I turn the sound off. Works out perfectly.
I have to use music sometimes - for example if it’s too windy and the sound gets ruined, or if there’s copyright music playing (like in this one)
Expanses of green scum in the intertidal zone are partly due to release of sewage. Better to video at high tide, I should think, and avoid this ugliness.
Visited Hunstanton last year while staying near Great Yarmouth. Lovely place to spend a sunny afternoon. You just can't beat the British seaside when the sun is shining :)
Couldn't agree more!
Great video love sunny hunny can’t wait to get back there again
You should!
Was there in July last year for a couple of days, didn't realise how much I missed until watching your video, will have to go back.
You should!
Another brilliant high quality video Neil which brought back happy childhood memories of family holidays there my sister got stung by a jellyfish in those waters she still carrys the mental scars and she is 66 this year lol.
Glad you stayed on your feet this time keep up the good work
Thank you so much!
Enjoyed the video, lovely to see lots of people out and about enjoying the day; yes I agreee the beach is not to impressive. Looks like a lovely town
Shame about the beach
They should do what they did In Tenerife and import a boatload of Sahara desert sand and create an amazing one
Just love your videos, So glad you stayed upright and didn't need first aid this time.
Me too! 🤣
👍👍
Thank you
So glad you got chance to film Hunstanton again, its such a lovely place❤
It really is!
Many thanks for another great video. Any chance you could make a walkthrough video of Swaffham?
Sure thing!
Another great video. I prefer the seaside videos personally - and this has made me want to go to Hunstanton - never been there before 🙂
Thank you
Will always mix up places but will always try and do as many seasides as I can
love Hunstanton but the beaches are very rough
Yes very rugged!
Happy New Year Gimbal Walk TV
Same to you!
Have a great one!
The 18 plus social group, go to Hunstanton every November, and stay at Searles. If you get chance, look up the John Betjemen film, Kings Lynn to Hunstanton. It shows where the old railway station used to be.
Fantastic - will do
Use to go there with my mum and dad for a day but nt been there for about 20 years
It’s a nice place
Great Vlog Gimbal Walk TV
Thank you so much
GREAT VIDEO !! And I love the music 👍
Thank you! 🙏
For the most part, not the sort of place for a day on the beach….barely anyone ON the beach! Just seems like it’s a place to walk up and down….and eat….and spend money on amusements etc. I visited many years ago, but think it was Old Hunstanton. I like the less commercial parts of Norfolk best. Holkham, Blakeney, Wells, Brancaster etc.
Agreed
I nagged you mercilessly on twitter to do Hunstanton and then you fell. Can't lie, I felt a tad guilty haha. Love the vid and thanks again.
ha ha it's YOUR fault 🤣
@@GimbalWalkTV You sound like my ex.
