21 Jun All aboard the Clacton Breeze for a day of fun beside the seaside
Get ready to catch the Clacton Breeze for family fun, games and giveaways on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th June.
The iconic Clacton Breeze is Hedingham & Chambers’ famous open-top bus, which returns this year with a stunning new vehicle, route and livery to take passengers to highlights of the Clacton coastline throughout the summer.
To celebrate the launch of the 2023 season, the Clacton Breeze bus will host a pop-up stand of family fun in Clacton on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th June with activities including a balloon modeller and a wheel of fortune providing passengers with some fantastic giveaways.
Located by the Clacton seafront at the Martello Car Park and on Marine Parade West, the Clacton Breeze bus will on display to showcase its beautiful new design, with a variety of family fun activities available for everyone to enjoy. Visitors will be able to try the ‘Spin the Wheel’ competition for a chance to win sweets, gifts, and free tickets for a future trip on the Clacton Breeze.
The Clacton Breeze bus will head into service from Saturday 1st July and begin providing passengers with a great day out, touring the Clacton coastline between Clacton seafront, St Osyth and Point Clear. The ‘hop on, hop off’ service will take people to holiday highlights within the Clacton area or just help them get about to all the different attractions of this seaside town.
The first bus departs Orchard Holiday Park in Point Clear at 09:50 on the 1st July and early evening buses will begin from 22nd July so you can enjoy summer nights on board the Clacton Breeze. Pop along on one of the event days and pick up a timetable.
