Eastbourne is a popular English resort town with a 19th-century 300-metre long Pier. From stunning cliffs, to 3 miles of shingle beaches and a Marine Conservation Area at Holywell, to windsurfing off Royal Parade and fishing at Harbour Reach, the coastline is diverse and fantastic! We also have a bandstand, theme parks, zoos, castles, museums and art galleries. Relax and enjoy our parks and gardens, sample the local produce from our vineyards and farmers markets, enjoy walking in the South Downs National Park, or spend the day shopping, then relax in one of our restaurants, wine bars or traditional pubs. Sovereign Harbour boasts a hugely popular waterfront retail and restaurant development. Towner Art Gallery includes modern British works and Redoubt Fortress has a military museum. South-west along the coast are the highest chalk sea cliffs in England, at Beachy Head, with its striped 1902 lighthouse. Eastbourne has a packed diary with events such as Airbourne, a seafront airshow, Eastbourne International tennis tournament in June and Continental markets.
