Brighton Beach
Brighton
This glorious stretch of pebbly shore is Brighton’s pride and joy. The section near Brighton Pier packs out with revellers on sunny summer days, while west and east of the centre, things are quieter; friends and families gather here for barbecues. The spacious Kemptown stretch is backed by a toytown railway, the Volks and Madeira Drive, which doubles as a showground for motor rallies and sporting events. Kemptown is also home to Brighton’s famous nudist beach, two-thirds of the way between the pier and the marina, and modestly shielded by a long mound of stones that’s raked up by bulldozers every season.
