| One of the most popular and unusual attractions in Hunstanton is “Wiley, the Wash Monster” This incredible machine is an ex military vehicle manufactured in 1967 for use as a landing craft by American forces in Vietnam. This 60 seater amphibious craft now transports tourists from the sandy beach at Hunstanton straight into the sea on any one of five coastal tours. The craft cruises at 8 knots in the water and 13 knots on land. See their amusing website for more details (you will love the catchy tune!). |
