Beaches

Eastbourne offers more than 3 miles of vast shingle beaches offering sand, and in some cases rock pooling opportunities, at low tide.

From stunning cliffs and a Marine Conservation Area at Holywell, to windsurfing off Royal Parade and fishing at Harbour Reach, our array of beaches offer the perfect spot to suit everyone.

Main Resort Beach

Our Wish Tower to Pier Main Resort beach offers the safest bathing with lifeguards, first aid, a kids wristband scheme and swimming only zones.

Plus a variety of cafes, toilets, showers, deckchairs, sun loungers and beach huts available to hire.

Beach Huts

Beach Huts have been a part of the british seafront since late Victorian times. Close to Cafes, Restaurants and Toilets, many of our beach huts are situated on our lifeguarded beaches, ensuring your safety.

Annual rented Beach Huts are located on the main resort beaches at Grand Parade, Holywell and the Sovereign beaches.
