Felixstowe Beach is one of the best in Suffolk to find beachcombing treasures. It’s packed full of the evidence of our marine life with a huge variety of sea shells, mermaids’ purses, and driftwood as well as fossils including 80 million year old sea sponges and sharks’ teeth. Every beach find tells a story …

Event led by Kate Osborne from Beach Bonkers

What age is this suitable for? All ages. Beachcombing is suitable for children and adults alike and everybody needs a ticket. Hunting for treasure on our beaches is addictive whatever your age, so all are welcome. Children must be supervised at all times by their accompanying adults.

Meeting point: Visit Felixstowe beach hut opposite Felixstowe Town Hall, Undercliff Rd W, Felixstowe IP11 2AG. Please arrive ten minutes before the beachcomb begins so we can start promptly. Sorry, but if you are late you won’t be able to join us.

What should I wear? It can be windy and cold on the beach even on a sunny day so wrap up with lots of layers for warmth and against the wind. Please wear shoes suitable for walking on shingle – flip-flops or open-toed sandals will be uncomfortable.
