I imagine on very hot weekends you West Wittering and Camber Sands get very busy? Even so, I've always meant to drive out there as they are supposed to be lovely.

Seaford , easy parking Deep clear water no sand for the kids to get stung by weavers , no loppy londoners , and at high tide nice fresh mackerel for the BBQ

 

[Bognor Bystander]

The one a hundred yards infront of my house. Sandy at low tide and stones at high tide when it's good for swimming. Of course the best bit is not having to park and walking back is 5 mins if I need a cuppa or the weather changes ...

Advice from the City Council

Barbecues on the beach




Sustainable charcoal

Of the 50,000 tonnes of charcoal consumed annually in the UK, 90 per cent comes from abroad. Not only does this increase the chance that tropical rainforests have been cut down, but it involves extra emissions from transport. Conditions in the industry are also not great for many workers. Sustainable charcoal is relatively easy to come by - several high street supermarkets, garden centres and local eco stores sell homegrown, Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified charcoal, either loose in bags or as disposable barbecues.

all sound, sensible advice and then they give you a little patronising lecture on charcoal at the end. perhaps they should extend it to advising you make sure your chicken wings are free range and that your wicker picnic baskets is biodegradeable. they dont miss a trick the busybodies do they.

I thought this as well.
Yes,East Head at Wittering is a nice beach but a bit over-rated in my opinion.
Additionally,huge queues and a few bob to park and there wasn't a decent catering outlet when I was last there.May have changed now though.

Lovely strolling along Bognor beach yesterday.

No mention of Brighton Beach then. I love the atmosphere on a really hot summers day- plenty of places to stop off at for a beer. everyone in a good mood. In total contrast that part of the coast Goring Gap westwards has some lovely areas.

Goring Gap Beach is particularly special as, at present, there is no absolutely no development on the seafront whatsoever. I walk my dog there every day and it is a delightful area enjoyed by many.

However, if you and others wish to enjoy Goring Gap and the beach in front of it, probably best that you do so sooner rather than later as Persimmon Homes are planning to build 390 + houses so there would no longer be a 'gap'. Such a development would indeed spoil the area for walkers, swimmers, surfers, kite surfers and BBQ'ers alike.

Additionally you may wish to support the campaign to halt this unwanted intrusion by supporting the 'NO' campaign wherever you may find it. Sorry I cannot provide a link but, as I understand, Worthing and Arun District Councils are totally opposed to it, as are West Sussex County Council.

The thing i love about Goring Gap apart from the beach and the surround is the free parking!!

Littlehampton.

Littlehampton great to take the dog for a nice stroll and swim.

Littlehampton beach across the river, I think it's called West Beach and it's near a golf course, there was a small ferry boat that went across the river to reach this beach, or quite a long walk round from a bridge that had 2 pubs at the end.

Went to an all night party there once and about 8 of us slept in a golf bunker. Got woken up by a golf ball landing on the green.

The golfers were fairly surprised to find eight long haired individuals emerging half asleep from the bunker next to the green.

West Beach Littlehampton or Climping beach, agree with Goring beach
