This walk is based on the QueenSpark book Brighton’s Seaside Stories, available to buy here.

Seaside Stories heritage walk will guide you eastward along the lower esplanade of Brighton’s world-famous sea front. Hear about the West Pier in its heyday, The Great Omani’s seaside stunts and strange things hauled up in fishing nets. This easy stroll is packed with stories, wartime memories and, of course, happy childhood recollections from those whose feet have trodden this route long before us.

This walk has 8 points of interest and should take you around 50 minutes to complete. It’s mainly flat except for a short but steep ramp up from the lower esplanade shortly before the Palace Pier.
