Hiking the Norfolk Coast and admiring some fascinating grey seals.

In Norfolk you can find common (harbour) and grey seals and the majority have their home in a prime spot on Blakeney Point Nature Reserve. The common seals have their young between June and August, and the pups can swim almost immediately.

While the grey seals breed between November and January and their young cannot swim until they have lost their first white coat. So they β€˜hang out’ with their family on the beach for the first three to four weeks of their lives before they test the water.

Horsey is one of the best places to see grey seals from November to January when they come ashore to give birth. While it is a quiet beach during other months it can get very busy in the winter. It is highly recommended visiting the seals outside school holidays and weekends or arrive early.
