Study Area

Sea Palling is located at north-east of Norwich, Norfolk, where a number of nearshore reefs have been built to defend the coast of this area, as shown in the figures. The breakwater scheme consists of 9 reefs, 4 of which are surface-piercing breakwaters and 5 of which are submerged breakwaters at high tides.
