Sussex by the Sea

Arundel Castle

A unique blend of traditional seaside fun, rural tranquillity and centuries of heritage, the three towns and delightful villages of the Arun District - Sussex by the Sea have something to offer everyone, whether you’re planning a holiday, short break or day trip.

With over 14 miles of beautiful coastline, Sussex by the Sea embraces the lively seaside resorts of Bognor Regis and Littlehampton. 2003 Seaside award winner Bognor Regis and 2003 European Blue Flag award winner Littlehampton have had a succession of prestigious awards for cleanliness and safe swimming. Here, you’ll find everything you need for the perfect seaside experience.

In contrast the picturesque town of Arundel, dominated by its stunning Norman castle, is in the historic heart of the South Downs. Straddling the River Arun, the sleepy little town nestles between the rolling South Downs, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the glistening sea. The surrounding area is dotted with attractions to explore, including historic Sussex villages, heritage homes, and interesting museums.

It is no wonder Sussex by the Sea is the perfect holiday destination – whatever time of year you visit.
