nope.........
dont think the seal trips run in the winter.....
doesnt stop me taking a drive out there - before my dad died in april (of alzheimers) i used to give my mum a break b y plonking him in the car and driving out to blakeney for the day....would park in the monor hotel on the corner, buy him a few whiskeys and soup for lunch, then walk him along the quayside where as a kid he used to take me crabbing...just to relive some fond memories and i'm sure at times, just for a second, he had flashbacks of family days.... even if he didnt, i felt he still really enjoyed his day out with his youngest, even tho most of the time he didnt know who i was....
the walk out to the point on the high ridgeway is worth the journey in itself...also, opposite the quay, the 3 roads that are opposite have some lovely little shops. worth a look. Also on your way home, drive round the coast a bit through clay and onto cromer to buy a fresh dressed crab for crab sarnies when you get home = loverley jubberley!
