well the weather has been nice up this way  yarmouth can be abit of a dive. dont limit yourself to just yarmouth, there are plenty of small little seaside towns along the coast, see if you can find any local little maps or guides for things to do.
You thinking about taking a trip into norwich? loads of shops, nice restarunts etc.
Beware of the true locals, they are inbread  webbed toes and 6 fingers FTW

Was thinking about going to wroxham for a day boat ride up the broads?
Visiting pleasure beach and finding a good curry house.
Do you know where the local weatherspoons is ?
Cheers for the advise on visiting the other beaches along the coast

not sure where the local weatherspoons is in yarmouth according to there website its called "the troll cart", should imagine its down the seafront somewhere. in norwich the weatherspoons is down a place called "Riverside" near the train station and its called "The Queen of Iceni" pronounsed "Ice e ne"
Wroxham is nice and trips on the broads are nice and relaxing

Yarmouth is pretty tacky tbh. My parents live in Wroxham. You can hire day boats which is always nice. If you visit Horning theres a pub next to the river called The Swan which has a beer garden on the waterfront. Its awesome on a hot day sitting, drinking and watching the boats etc.
Also its a little way out from Wroxham but theres a great gastro pub called The Pigs which does awesome food. Well worth a visit.
