Saltdean Beach

Saltdean Beach is a less commercial and less crowded beach compared to Brighton Beach. It offers ample parking space and is a great place for those seeking solitude. The beach is characterized by its thick stones instead of sand, making it unique. It is surrounded by stunning cliffs that offer breathtaking views. The beach is a popular spot for walks, swimming, and spotting local flora. However, visitors are advised to avoid swimming when the tide is out past the groynes as the water depth is insufficient and the rocks and mud can make it a tricky walk out. It is recommended to bring water shoes for comfortable access to the sea. Saltdean Beach is also a great place to spend the day, with a nearby bar and a cafe on the beach that sells snacks and ice creams. Visitors are advised to bring a picnic rug or body boards to lie on for comfort. The cliffs overlooking the sea offer an amazing view, making it a beautiful spot on a sunny day.
