Martello Beach Holiday Park Belsize Avenue Jaywick Clacton-on-Sea
Don’t miss a walk along the seawall towards St. Osyth’s Creek. It’s a flat, easy path that feels like a forgotten corner of the world. You might spot a heron, a seal if you’re lucky, or just a very determined jogger fighting the wind.

For a truly Essex experience, visit the Wreck of the SS Creosote (okay, it’s a mock shipwreck, but it’s iconic). The local cockle and whelk stalls are a must—try a jellied eel if you’re brave; it’s a Thames Estuary tradition that dates back centuries. Fun fact: Jaywick was once a trendy 1920s seaside resort for Londoners escaping the smog.
Making the Most of Your Stay
Embrace the Britishness of it all. This isn’t a holiday for constant Instagram stories; it’s for reading a trashy novel while the rain taps on the roof. The park’s laundry room doubles as a social hub—dry your jeans and learn the name of the retiree from two plots over.
If you’re feeling adventurous, take a day trip to Mersea Island for oysters and the best seafood platter east of London. But honestly, most of the magic happens on site: the quiet evening walk, the taste of a blackberry picked from the hedge, the sound of a child’s delighted scream as a wave sneaks up their trousers.
