What makes Caister-on-Sea Holiday Park so special is the direct access to the beach, which is perfect for everyone, family and friends. The beach is backed by sand dunes and offers stunning views out to sea. Our top tip to make the most of the sunny days is to take a few deckchairs, maybe a good book, to relax in the sunshine while the little ones have a run about.
