    No overnight parking, new prohibition signs erected by council ..day parking only

  • 3/5

    Nice place to park for a walk along the coastal path. Overnight parking is prohibited, new signs have been erected

  • 3/5

    No overnight parking but great for a day spot and walks along the coast - further into Bawdsey are great places to park overnight and only a mile or so away

  • 1/5

    This is a car park, new sign : No Camping or Parking Overnight

  • 1/5

    Due to new parking restrictions at the Quay, this spot is likely to get extremely busy. Word of warning to swimmers - there are razor sharp ancient wooden spikes and a concrete bunker under the water about 1/2 a mile along, just about where it looks like the right place to go into the sea from the path. If you’re going in, go as far as the Martello Tower, safer there.

    Large sign saying no overnight stays. Massive shame.

  • 3/5

    There is now a big no camping or overnight parking sign here. It’s still a good spot during the day to walk along the coast.

    Had a wonderful night here. All alone in the car park until the next morning. Very peaceful with just the sound of the sea hitting the rocks just over the sea wall.

  • 5/5

    Stayed overnight a couple of times, good view, bits to explore after dinner/breakfast (you can kill an hour tops). Hard to beat on a full moon or for star gazing. Bit muddy, bit bumpy, but well out of the way. 3/5 phone reception & 4G (giffgaff/O2).

    Great place to stay, here in winter so had the place to ourselves. Quiet location at the end of the road only a few dogs walkers in the morning.

  • 4/5

    Beautiful walks here would highly recommend. Unable to see views when in camper due to sea walls, but worth a visit. We stayed down the road (Ferry road) for a park space with a sunset view.

    On our second night here. Great little find! Would recommend if you want a quite stay where you can hear the sea. Excellent walks in the morning too.

  • 4/5

    Nice spot very quiet apart from the sounds of nature. a few other vans here too. it was pretty stormy in the night but we lowered the pop top and had a pretty decent night. lovely walks along the sea wall. ww2 ruins onsite which is of interest to me. we will come again

    Great spot, stayed on my own for one night, a few other campers around, secluded and quiet. Great location for a walk and a morning dip! Would recommend!

    Fabby place - was quiet and lovely to take a walk along the seafront

  • 5/5

    What a great find. We went for our first overnight stay here and it was so quiet, Well peaceful and relaxed. Plenty of space to park, free, beautiful scenery, waking up hearing the wildlife, birds and waves. Plenty of walking space for dogs and bike rides. I don’t know if I’d want to sleep alone here as very secluded. Fisherman started turning up between 7 and 8. Dog walkers also. It also has a lot of history behind it. Starts to get busier around 10.30am but everyone we spoke to or was around was very friendly and said hi. We only done one night but we will be going back again.

    Magic spot, very quiet apart from the waves and the wildlife.

  • 4/5

    We stayed one night here & it was very quiet & lovely - sounds of the sea - no amenities but lots of bins & wildlife! Fisher people leaving early hours but apart from that great!

  • 5/5

    Lovely views, great walks and very peaceful as no traffic. There were a few fishermen early hours and there is no charge with plenty of room. No facilities except for bins.

  • 4/5

    Stayed for one night. Peaceful night, fantastic views and worth getting up for sunrise! No faculties, but plenty of bins to get rid of rubbish.

  • 1/5

    Quiet spot with lovely walks and bird life. Other campers around, very peaceful night

  • 4/5

    Stayed last Friday night, one other camper present. Some local kids turned up around 11pm revving their engines, chatting, and catching up with their mates but they didn't bother anyone and left again 20 min later. Peaceful night otherwise.

    I came here yesterday evening around 2030 no issues beautiful place to relax during the day or go for a walk about. Has an interesting history so worth checking that out too. Slept really well here, I'm on my own and no other campers, a few young folk were here until late but they were no issue at all. It's worth a trip if you're looking for some sea, peace and fresh air

  • 4/5

    Great spot although someone pulled up next to us around 1am and went round the van with a torch. The dog barked and they soon left. Other than that lovely spot good walks and beautiful views

  • 5/5

    Excellent free car park, large enough for 10 or so campers, easily. a few cars coming and going late evening but peaceful afterwards until the morning!

  • 5/5

    Quiet spot next to a nice beach, we were alone overnight (August bank holiday) but very busy with birdwatchers the next morning.

  • 5/5

    Great quiet spot. we were only ones there. big area so would take a lot of vans easily

    Super schöner Platz! Wir sind allerdings nicht über Nacht geblieben, weil es uns zu abgelegen war. Es lohnt sich auch nur einen Abstecher an den Platz zu machen.
