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.

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.

The lighthouses, commissioned by Trinity House in 1862 and completed in 1863, served to guide ships towards Harwich harbour (some 1.5km to the north) their different heights enabling the two lights to be aligned on approach. They replaced two late 18th century lighthouses at Harwich (the `Low' and `High' lighthouses) which had become unreliable due to shifting sand bars around the mouth of the Stour estuary. A comprehensive pattern of marker buoys in the harbour approach rendered the new lights obsolete in 1917. The lights escaped demolition, but gradually deteriorated through lack of routine maintenance. A major programme of restoration took place between 1983 and 1988.
