"I'd say business is up and the beaches are busier than ever," says the owner of a Dunwich cafe that is well-known for its fish and chips.
Christian Elsley, co-owner of Flora Tea Rooms next to the beach, said its car park is usually full by lunchtime and recently every day had been "like August Bank Holiday".
"We lost three months' income during lockdown, but I think we've had a good summer so far.
"I can't compare it to last year as there's two of us running it this year, but I feel like it's busier because we've had a good run of hot weather, just scorching, and we're super busy."
Today, lots of people are taking advantage of the half price Eat Out to Help Out Scheme, but social distancing means only half his 23 inside and 16 outside tables are available, while others pick up takeaways and head to the beach.

A seaside village pub has doubled its serving staff and taken on two extra chefs as people flock to the coast.
"The weather has a huge impact, of course, drink sales are up and the [government Eat Out to Help Out, external] voucher scheme has proved very popular," said David James, the owner of The Dolphin at Thorpeness in Suffolk.
He said trade was up 30-45% on this time last year, all his rooms were booked and if the sun kept shining and continued into September, he hoped it would make up for losses during the lockdown.
The pub has 40 socially distanced benches placed around its large garden and he has doubled his serving staff to 10 to meet demand.
"We've been full every day since 4 August, we've shut down the boules area to provide more benches - it's become an enormous operation," he added.
The firm, whose head office is in the UK, says it has been forced to cancel sailings until March.

Ness Point in Lowestoft is the UK's most easterly point.
