Tides on the Suffolk
and Essex coast wash around yacht moorings, flat marshes and oyster
beds making it a popular area for birdwatchers and other nature
lovers. Thriving ports lie close to seaside resorts, and inland
the River Stour runs through lowlands; its lush valley was an inspiration
to the painters Constable, Gainsborough and Munnings.
