Breathtakingly beautifully views. The hike is not easy though. Very long steep ups and downs. Need a lot of hydration.

Free parking, that's worth 5 stars anywhere these days. Very nice Promenade. From the sailing club at the west end to splash point at the east end, a very nice easy walk all year round. Plenty of options for tea, coffee breaks along the way with snacks if required. Check the parking as there are restrictions.

For someone will a magical place, for others just a point on the map... It is one of our favourite places for watching sunsets in south England... Also starting point for Seven Sisters Cliff hike which is short but superb... Visiting all year round... It's a fantastic place for recharge, meditation or simply to enjoy an hour or a day/ night out by by the sea... It's a good spot for stargazing... I have seen meteor showers or falling 🌠 several times...

Nice spot at the east side of seaford beach. The path climbs rapidly from sea level up along the top of the chalk cliffs. Expect stunning views along the park. Lots of benches here to sit and admire to views of boats and ferries visiting the port in the distance. Cliffs are steep drop and dangers - keep kids and dogs supervised.
