Pontins Pakefield Day 4

Our final day in Pontins and we had to be checked out of the chalet and the car loaded up by 10am. As we could still use the facilities we decided to stay on site and make the most of the long weekend before heading home. Joshua, Brandon and Layla really wanted to stay for the inflatable commando crawl in the swimming pool from 12-1. So we went for a general swim first and then stayed in for the inflatable. After this we all headed to McDonalds for a spot of lunch to finish the short break where it started a few days earlier.

In between 10 o’clock checkout and the general swim we did take a walk to the Pakefield Coastguard Lighthouse which is now 191 years old and is still manned today. We had the chance to go up to the top of the lighthouse and talk to the coastal guards and also to have a look through the telescopes. Incredibly from the top of the tower you have an 8 mile view to the horizon whereas at beach level you can only see 3 miles.

Our weekend in Pontins has been really good fun and a bit tiring. It has been amazing to see all the kids bonding and playing together.
