It takes a long time to cross Norfolk - partly the size of the place and the paucity of good, fast roads.
The direct route is not as picturesque as the coast road, past Wells and Cromer, but that is slow and wiggly.
If you're going to Horsey then keep an eye on the weather and the time. It can be incredibly cold and windy.
The dunes are tall and if you get there in the afternoon then the light coming from the West can put the beach in shade surprisingly early.
If you can go on a weekday I would, the place gets very busy in the weekends on the run up to Christmas as the pup count goes uo.
It's early for pups now but it will be teaming with adult seals anyway.
All the pups in this album are taken from the dune viewing points. There are other beach shots from the summer when you can wander around and see them lounging about.
Pictures I've taken over the years at Horsey, Norfolk, UK. Breeding colony of Grey Seals and the odd Common Seal too.

Regarding lenses I used to use a 40-150mm on Micro 4/.3rds (crop factor of 2).
Last time I went I had my 75-300mm on M43 which was useful but I struggled with shutter speed at the long end - fur blowing in the wind and the seals moving about.
The lens just isn't fast enough at 600mm equi. for winter in shade.
It's lots of fun though and the pups are incredibly cute, The males fighting is also a sight to see and well worth having a good dune between you and them
