It comes after after Felixstowe South and Pier and Southwold beaches both scooped a Blue Flag award for their quality, the way they are managed and the facilities on offer.
The best pubs
Suffolk is home to a number of incredible pubs – with many of them receiving national recognition for their fine food and drink.
The Unruly Pig, which is managed by Brendan Padfield, was recently named the best gastropub in the Estrella Damm Top 50 Gastropubs 2022 list.

The High Street pub was also one of only two in the county to receive a coveted three AA Rosettes last year.
