Also known as the Hanoverian Tower, Naze Tower was built to aid ships navigating this stretch of coastline, which otherwise has very few landmarks. It would have had a light at the top for nocturnal navigation. The tower is now home to a great cafe and a museum. It is also well worth taking the 111 steps up the tower to bask in the glorious views from the top.

Hiking

Nice walk along the coast. Down along the beach if you have time you can find sharks teeth in the small pebbles. Sunken pill boxes too to see.
