Jaywick, Coastal settlement in Tendring district, England
The village extends along the North Sea coastline with rows of modest houses, sand dunes, and sea walls protecting the community from coastal waters.
Frank Stedman acquired this marshland in 1928 and developed it into a holiday destination for London's East End residents, selling plots for £25.
The Martello Tower on the coastline functions as an arts center, providing exhibition space and cultural activities for local residents and visitors.
Regular bus services connect Jaywick to Clacton-on-Sea, where direct trains operate to London Liverpool Street and Colchester stations.
The Sunspot business center offers 24 affordable retail and office units along the seafront, supporting local entrepreneurship and commercial activities.
