Join us on a tour of super seaside hotspots all around the UK

1 Worthing West Sussex

WHY? Once thought the quintessential retirement spot, Worthing has attracted a younger crowd in recent years.

It is one of the biggest seaside towns on the south coast, so there’s plenty to enjoy, including several theatres and a burgeoning arts scene – check out the arts and crafts at East Beach Studios.

Pride of the town is the magnificent pier, and the Art Deco Pavilion Theatre.

EAT… Delicious seafood by the water crabshackworthing.co.uk

DRINK… Lively venue for great cocktails and excellent music escapebarworthing.co.uk

STAY… Ecclesden Farm ecclesdenfarm.co.uk

SEE… The wide promenade has plenty of room for a gentle stroll along the seafront, before stopping at the pier for ice cream and deckchairs

Or you could go to… Nearby Lancing for a sandy beach, or buzzy Brighton for the nightlife and the shopping

2 Rye

East Sussex

WHY? Delightful Rye, with its ancient streets, historic inn and countless art and antique shops, is a super spot for soaking up the best of coastal Sussex, with Camber Sands on its doorstep.

The Cinque Port town exudes history, so be sure to walk around St Mary’s Church and Rye Castle, and wander along the cobbles of Mermaid Street.
