Other attractions in the area include the popular resorts of Thorpeness, Walberswick, Dunwich and Southwold, together with nature reserves at RSPB Minsmere and Havergate Island.

The County Town of Ipswich lies about 25 miles to the south-west. Aldeburgh is an affluent market town, and one where there is a high percentage of second homes and holiday lets.
Because of the interest from those looking for second homes from London and the south east, Aldeburgh is regularly mentioned within the national press as one of the best coastal towns in the country.
