The Church of Saint Nicholas has two towers: the main tower is over 100 ft high and a well-known landmark for miles around, and the smaller tower was built as a beacon to guide boats into Blakeney harbour.
The old Guildhall in the High Street (now a hotel) has a 14th century undercroft.
The waterfront was a commercial seaport until the early 20th century. Now the harbour is silted up, and only small boats can make their way out to Blakeney Point. This part of Blakeney is owned by the National Trust and is a nature reserve where seals can be seen basking on the sand.
