Brighton from the Water: A Different Perspective
Seeing Brighton from the sea offers a completely different and utterly spectacular perspective on this beautiful city. Whether you’re on a fishing trip, a sightseeing boat tour, or paddling along the shoreline by kayak or paddleboard, being on the water gives you views of Brighton’s seafront, piers, and cliffs that land-based visitors simply never see.
Sightseeing Boat Trips
Several operators run sightseeing boat trips from Brighton beach during the spring and summer months. These excursions take you out to sea for views of the Palace Pier, the ruined West Pier, and Brighton’s magnificent Regency seafront from the water. Some trips extend along the coast to view the dramatic chalk cliffs east and west of the city.
Sea Fishing Trips
Brighton’s fishing trips are enormously popular with both experienced anglers and complete beginners. Boats head offshore to fish for mackerel, bass, cod, and other species. Equipment is usually provided, and the skippers are expert at finding the fish. It’s a wonderful way to spend a half or full day at sea.
Kayaking and Paddleboarding
Kayaking and paddleboarding from Brighton beach are available from several operators during the warmer months. Lessons and equipment hire are available for beginners, and independent hire is available for experienced paddlers. Exploring the shoreline by kayak reveals sea caves, rock formations, and beach access points invisible from land.
Wakeboarding and Jet Skiing
Brighton Marina offers wakeboarding and jet skiing facilities for thrill-seekers. The protected waters of the marina are ideal for beginners, and the more adventurous can head out into the open sea with experienced guides.
