Perched on the island’s western coast near Anson Bay, Puppy’s Point is one of Norfolk’s favourite places to catch the sunset. With open grassy headlands, picnic tables, and easy access by car, it’s ideal for a relaxed afternoon that lingers into evening. Bring a picnic, find a bench, and watch the sun sink below the ocean horizon in a blaze of colour.
The rocky outcrop below the cliffs resembles a puppy gazing out to sea – though you’ll need to be on the water to truly see the shape. Even from land, the charm of Puppy’s Point is clear. As day fades, the sky often transforms through soft oranges, deep pinks and purples, casting a glow across the waves.
Stay a little longer and you may be rewarded as mutton birds return to nest along the cliffs at twilight, filling the sky with motion and sound as night falls.
