Welcome

Some drive here down the winding cliffside. Some walk down the beach. Some moor their boats in Britain's largest marina and jump on to our busy boardwalks.All come looking for something different but all love our unique blend of sea air, street life and surprises around every corner.

This is a place where you'll find firm food favourites, rising food stars and a vibrant seasonal calendar. Luxury hotels sit next to independent shops and movie-going families rub shoulders with yacht lovers. It's a place where there's always something happening and there's something for everyone.

Bustling with life. Bursting with energy. Brimming with possibilities.
