Sheringham Museum at The Mo sits right on the seafront, telling the story of the town's fishing and lifeboat heritage across three floors packed with boats, fishermen's ganseys, fossils, wartime artefacts and photographs. There's also Windscape, the visitor centre for the offshore wind farms, and a tower with coastal views. It suits families and anyone curious about maritime history, and you can expect to spend around ninety minutes exploring, dipping in and out to the town's cafes since there's no onsite café. The museum is fully accessible with lift access throughout. Based in Sheringham, North Norfolk, it's close to Sheringham station and beach, both under 0.3 miles away, with 143 places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays.
