Grey Seal Pups Photography Workshop – Norfolk Coast

Run by:
UK Photo Tours
Location:
horsey gap beach, Norfolk

Workshop Description

Join UK Photo Tours for five days on the Norfolk coast, photographing one of the UK's great wildlife spectacles: over 5,000 newborn grey seal pups born each year along this stretch of coastline. Led by professional photographer Dion Hitchcock, our small group (max 5 to 6 photographers) visits multiple seal beaches at different times of day, always at a safe, respectful distance, for a rich variety of light and behaviour: nursing pups, playful juveniles and protective mothers.

The tour includes four nights in a comfortable self-catering cottage (own room), complimentary return transport from London if required, all local transport, full photography tuition, and the use of Dion's supplementary telephoto lenses and camera bodies if you need them. Norfolk's windmills and lighthouses add dramatic landscape opportunities at sunset, and the December departure coincides with a meteor shower.

This tour is easy to moderate in fitness terms and welcomes all abilities, including solo travellers. Two departures run in November and December 2026, from £1,295pp, and every booking is 100% financially protected.
