East Suffolk is a district on the North Sea coast of Suffolk, formed in 2019 by merging Suffolk Coastal and Waveney. Lowestoft and Felixstowe are its main towns, and the others include Aldeburgh, Beccles, Bungay, Framlingham, Halesworth, Leiston, Saxmundham, Southwold, Woodbridge and Kesgrave; the council is based at Melton. The rest of the district is largely rural, and it borders Babergh, Ipswich, Mid Suffolk, South Norfolk and Great Yarmouth.
Lowestoft grew on fishing and as a resort with broad sandy beaches. Lake Lothing, the inner harbour, splits the town in two and opens through Oulton Broad on to the River Waveney and the Broads. Felixstowe became a fashionable resort in the late Victorian period, and its docks, opened in 1886, grew into the Port of Felixstowe. Woodbridge, 8 miles up the River Deben from the sea, has a boating harbour and a tide mill, and the Anglo-Saxon ship burial at Sutton Hoo lies across the river.
Much of the coast and the land behind it lies in the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and some northern parts of the district are in the Broads.
Lowestoft station has trains to Ipswich on the East Suffolk Line and to Norwich on the Wherry Line, and Felixstowe has a branch line to Ipswich. The A12 runs to London from Lowestoft, where it meets the A47, and the A14 links Felixstowe with the Midlands.
