July 18, 2023- Luke Smout

Felixstowe, a charming coastal town situated on the eastern coast of England, continues to captivate both residents and visitors with its rich maritime heritage and breathtaking natural beauty. Known as the "Garden Resort of the East Coast," Felixstowe offers a perfect blend of historical landmarks, bustling port activities, and stunning landscapes.

Nestled at the mouth of the River Orwell, Felixstowe has a long-standing connection with maritime trade and shipping. The Port of Felixstowe, one of the busiest container ports in Europe, plays a vital role in the town's economy. With its state-of-the-art facilities and strategic location, the port attracts numerous international vessels, fostering global trade and boosting the local economy.

Felixstowe's maritime heritage takes centre stage at the Felixstowe Museum, where history enthusiasts can immerse themselves in the town's seafaring past. The museum showcases a fascinating collection of maritime artefacts, including model ships, nautical instruments, and stories of famous voyages.

For nature lovers, Felixstowe boasts a stunning coastline with miles of golden beaches (Yes, a few stones too!) . The Blue Flag-awarded beaches provide the perfect setting for sunbathing, beachcombing, or building sandcastles with the family. Nature enthusiasts can explore the mesmerizing landscapes of the Felixstowe South Nature Reserve, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest, teeming with diverse flora and fauna.

Felixstowe also offers a wealth of outdoor activities and recreational opportunities. The town's extensive promenade attracts walkers, joggers, and cyclists, allowing them to enjoy scenic views while breathing in the fresh sea air. Water sports enthusiasts can partake in sailing, windsurfing, and kayaking along the coastline, while golfers can tee off at the Felixstowe Ferry Golf Club, boasting panoramic views of the estuary.

As a testament to its commitment to cultural enrichment, Felixstowe hosts a variety of annual events and festivals.

In recent years, Felixstowe has witnessed positive development and investment, with new residential areas and modern amenities enhancing the town's appeal. The ongoing efforts to preserve its historical charm while embracing progress have made Felixstowe an attractive place to live and visit.

Felixstowe's Seafront Gardens wins coveted Green Flag Award:
Felixstowe's Seafront Gardens has once again been officially recognised as one of the country’s best parks after receiving a Green Flag Award.
The serene Victorian cliffside site was today awarded the international quality mark for parks and green spaces for the seventh successive year.
This uninterrupted string of awards followed East Suffolk Council’s four-year restoration project, launched in 2011, to return the Grade II listed greenspace to its former glory as part of a town-wide regeneration programme.
The Green Flag Award scheme, managed by environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy, under licence from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, recognises and rewards well-managed parks and green spaces, setting the benchmark standard for the management of green spaces across the United Kingdom and around the world.
Judges reported being very impressed by the well managed and maintained Seafront Gardens, which they called a “credit to the town” and deserving of the Green Flag Award. They also praised the site’s links to numerous community groups and the strength of the Friends of Felixstowe Seafront Gardens.
Cllr Letitia Smith, East Suffolk’s Cabinet Member for Communities, Leisure and Tourism, said: “It is a real feat for the Seafront Gardens to be able to fly the Green Flag for the seventh year running.
“The importance to the local community of this unique spot cannot be overstated – and I’m sure it has been of particular value over the last two years, when our parks and green spaces played such a vital role as places to meet safely.
“The Green Flag Award is testament to the hard work and dedication of the management and maintenance teams, and the continued involvement of a passionate friends’ group.”
Mayor of Felixstowe, Cllr Sharon Harkin said: “We are delighted to be raising the green flag for the seventh time! Achieving the Green Flag Award demonstrates that Felixstowe Spa Gardens are being managed to the high national standard of excellence.
“A huge thank you must go to the dedication and commitment of staff and volunteers who work tirelessly all year round, keeping the gardens in top shape for both visitors and residents to enjoy.
“The award also recognises that maintaining gardens, that are well-used and valued by its community, is about more than just cutting the grass. Access to good quality green space is vital if we are to tackle some of the challenges that we face, including the growing problem of obesity, the rise in mental health issues and the feelings of being disconnected from the communities in which we live.
“Felixstowe is incredibly lucky to have such a fantastic outdoor space set against the stunning backdrop of the coast – perfect for a gentle stroll, daily dog walk, family cricket or time out to relax and unwind or simply sit still and enjoy the view.”
Keep Britain Tidy’s Accreditation Manager, Paul Todd said: “I would like to congratulate everyone involved in making Felixstowe's Seafront Gardens worthy of a Green Flag Award.
“This award is testament to all the hard work of staff and volunteers, who do so much to ensure that it maintains the high standards demanded by the Green Flag Award.”

Now this should be fun!
Back in the 1960's, I spent a few weeks out in the North Sea, broadcasting on Tower Radio, based on Sunk Head Tower, which must make me one of the very few pirate radio jocks still surviving!
And now we have our own local Pirate Rado Exhibition at the "P" Tower on Martello estate, where you'll be able to learn about this really entertaining, exciting, and (according to the UK government) highly illegal period in radio entertainment!
See you there!

Phew!
