Parking
The advance car park booking scheme for NWT Holme Dunes runs from July to August. Visitors will need to book in advance for any visits made by car during this busier period.
It remains our priority to carefully manage the site for wildlife, visitors, and our local community, and to follow the North Norfolk Coast’s ‘enjoy, respect, protect’ plea.
To avoid disappointment, you must book your visit in good time, especially at busier times such as weekends and bank holidays. Bookings will close 30 minutes prior to a booking slot. When the car park is full, we won’t be able to accept any more entrants. All visitors must use the Eventbrite booking system prior to arrival at the site. Full terms and conditions for the advance car park booking scheme can be found on the Eventbrite page.
