The 5 BEST Things to Do In Eastbourne 🇬🇧

[@みっちゃんの一人旅]

I visited Eastbourne, Seven sisters, and Brighton in 2012 from Japan. Eastbourne is so nice and calm and great place. Thank you for reminding me of your stunning places.

[@rachael5177]

Beachy Head is definitely number 1 I feel I’m so lucky to live in such a beautiful place .

[@Tristandewet]

I totally agree! Love going there for a sunset 🌅

[@alaa-eldin_hamdan]

Damn straight you’re lucky. I worked in hotels for two summers running in 1977 and 1978 during my college holidays. Had the best time of my life. My wife and kids don’t want to hear any more about Eastbourne because I talk about it all the time.

[@zzeebbeerrkkaa]

I leave in London - our favourite place for weekend away! Beautiful, peaceful place but full of fun, live music and nice and happy people!

[@Tristandewet]

It’s one of my favourite places too! 🤙🏼

[@triumphriderinblack7406]

One pub in Eastbourne I would advise anyone to visit would be my local, the The Lamb in the Old Town. With the building dating from 1180, there are wonderful old wooden beams, especially in the back bar, and you can enjoy a lovely pint of Harvey's Best Bitter!

Great video, I love living here it's the best.

[@davidsheriff8989]

Used to go there every Sunday from London..

[@anirudhkaushik3643]

The walk along the cliffs looks amazing. Nice compilation.

An excellent short video of Eastbourne. I really enjoyed it. I now have some great ideas. Thank you. 👍🏽

I'm going to Eastbourne on Monday I can't wait I love the place have you done a video on places to eat I love the fish and chip shop qualisea I think its the best chip shop in eastbourne and for a sandwich and cake and cup of tea the victoriana tearooms on the pier is such a lovelynplace the sandwiches are freshly made and the cakes are do fresh they serve tea in a teapot and cup and saucer no mugs to be seen

Have you looked around the harbour?

[@xianabee9363]

I am coming soon in Eastbourne. I'm excited to explore all these places. Hope people there are as nice too.. :-)

[@Tristandewet]

Yes they should all be perfect to explore!

[@susangarvey9415]

We go there for a little trip out, we're from London and live in Brighton. My little dog loves Seaford and Pevensey Bay beaches, but i think Beachyhead and Cuckmere Haven are possibly the most beautiful places i the world.

[@serbiankanyewest]

will visit in a year with my school

[@Tristandewet]

No problem! 😊

[@kingofpattaya4524]

Be wary of walking to the lighthouse along the beach, you could get cut off by the tide. It's also worth warning about the crumbling chalk cliffs, whether you're walking above or below..

[@silencelambs1238]

What about getting hit by lightening you forgot that or a jumper

[@kingofpattaya4524]

@@silencelambs1238 Most people don't go out walking in thunder and lightning, unless the weather suddenly turns. But walking along any beach with high cliffs is always risky because there's no escape route if the tide comes in. The lifeboat service can't help either these days because they're too busy bringing in illegal immigrants.

[@silencelambs1238]

@@kingofpattaya4524 LOL!

[@stephenburnage7687]

I was raised in Eastbourne but moved 50 years ago, living in London, the US, Australia and sailing around SE Asia. Having now explored the big wide world I just bought a house in Eastbourne to return home. Yes, Eastbourne can compare to the best in the world.

[@Tristandewet]

Thats awesome! its definitely up there with some great places to see!

[@stephenburnage7687]

It's actually quite a unique combination - ocean, hiking, the cliffs, cool pubs, decent architecture and some of the better weather in the UK - all 90 mins from one of the best cities in the world. OK, it doesn't have the weather of the Costa del Sol but having suffered with the high temperatures and humidity of the tropics for many years, I will take the four season climate any day.

[@Tristandewet]

@@stephenburnage7687 Very true! Its a great place to live, and when the suns out there are very few places in the uk which are better!

What planet are you lot on...Eastbourne is some kind of nightmare where you're trapped in a cheap holiday and the people are dozier than sleepy hollow.

I go there every summer with my friends! Its my favoueite place to visit as its very pretty

I'm going there tomorrow!!

Thanks man! 🤙🏼

Eastbourne is a very special place. Great video thanks. I love the hop on hop off bus to Burling Gap and East Dean.

[@Tristandewet]

I love it! The bus is great to watch the view of the scenery on! :)

[@WILFREDRUSSELL-h8n]

My favourite is the Towner Art Gallery, one of the very best small art galleries in England. Oh sorry! You didn’t even mention it 😢 It has regular changing exhibitions, hosted the Turner Prize this year, and has a wonder collection of Sussex artists. It’s located in Devonshire Park, overlooking the famous tennis courts and next door to the Congress Theatre

[@suncoastchurch01]

We live in Eastbourne and ALL of the place you've shown are our favourites! During lockdown we have walked most of the ones highlighted. I do have a question ..... where was the fishing harbour you showed in the video. Love the video and proud to live here - one of the best places on the planet and I'm actually an Aussie! :)

[@Tristandewet]

Thanks! They are all great places to visit! The harbour was shot in another town but I used it as I didn't have any of the Eastbourne harbour haha! Its for sure a great place and glad I have lived here! :)

[@izabela1961]

Hi, visiting these cliffs is my dream. But I'll need two days, since I'm not a great walker and do not drive. But, yes, I have to go there one day. In June this year I had a chance to see the Dover cliffs from the ferry. Loved them.

[@NailaRose]

beautiful thanks for sharing!

[@Tristandewet]

Thank you! :)

[@starshine7937]

Great video thank you

[@san4tam]

Living in Seaford Eastbourne is a great town with wonderful shopping and eateries galore, but the best part of the film is Cuckmere Haven and the famous Seven Sisters. One question I would ask is "Where did the 7 Sisters get their names from?

[@TR4zest]

I would have included Sovereign harbour in my top five. Nice vid though, thanks.

I am from Eastbourne and know those places very well, as we all do (Nice harbour, wherever that might be?). You missed out Pevensey bay, Pevensey Castle, Herstmonceux Castle, Alfriston and Drusillas Park, to name but a few places! Nice place to visit, but to live, is an acquired taste!

[@PlanetaryCitizen]

People might like to know that some of the scenes from Brighton Rock (1947) were filmed on Eastbourne pier.

ENJOYED THE VIDEO!! I enjoyed a great trek from Eastbourne to Beachy Head & East Dean then bussed back. BUMMER I hadn't studied up on Birling Gap before leaving Oregon USA or I sure would've included a visit there. BTW, since I was solo I didn't drop in for a meal but I did check out a most romantic, lovely restaurant/inn about 1/2 - darn, I didn't get the name but sill be sure to find it next time.

[@Tristandewet]

I’m glad you did! It’s a great hike! That’s a shame! Just gives you a reason to revisit Thanks for your comment! 😊🙏🏼

[@SootheSound]

Great video, thank you for sharing. Did you have to get permission for the drone footage near the cliffs? I’m interested in visiting, but have read the NT doesn’t allow drones to take off from its land... 😐

[@Tristandewet]

I got the videos from Pexels.com which has loads of copyright free videos, im not sure on the laws there as didn't actually have a drone!

Beachy Head is cool but I went to Eastbourne last week, abandoned hotels, homeless people, gangs, it's becoming a dump.

[@lemee70]

Predictable.

[@OiSam-ir9me]

Beachy head is great if you don't kind suicides. No1 spot in the UK for suicides. I've had two people I know end their lives there. The pier is dull, the arcade doesn't exist anymore. Birling gap and seven sisters are the better places, or just a walk along the downs. The town is pretty miserable, a lot of junkies alcoholics and an increase in homelessness which is a shame.

[@TheSeafordian]

Wow. The pier does have an arcade and the town is far from miserable.

[@OiSam-ir9me]

@@TheSeafordian I stand corrected on the pier's arcade then, must be fairly recent as the last one wasn't replaced initially after the fire. But I stand by fully, eastbourne town being a miserable place.

I can see why people around you might get suicidal.
