What to do in Lancing Beach? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Lancing Beach welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.

The beach is absolutely stunning, and the facilities are well-maintained. The view is simply incredible, resembling a paradise, and everyone seems to be thoroughly enjoying themselves. The sand and water are pristine, as clear as crystal. I highly recommend visiting this gorgeous location, especially on weekends when the atmosphere is fantastic, thanks to the lively crowd and pleasant weather.

The beach is extremely LAUSD back and recreational, with bicycles allowed on the beach front. It's also dog friendly, so you can enjoy swimming and jogging on the promenade. Overall, it's a fantastic place.

sandy shore

8 Very good

The beach was clean, so I arrived early on Saturday to secure a spot at the start of this year's heatwave. Although there were many stones, there were occasional patches of sand when the tide went out. I thoroughly enjoyed swimming in the waves and the water was pleasantly warm. The beach is conveniently located just a 10-minute walk from the train station. Unfortunately, there weren't many cafes or restaurants open, but we still had a great time!

The area by Lancing Beach is a pleasant green space. There are refreshment kiosks and toilets available. Additionally, there is a car park, although I cannot comment on the parking costs as I did not drive there. It is conveniently located on the Worthing to Brighton cycle path, making it a delightful spot to take a brief rest, particularly because of the beautiful views of the sea.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Lancing Beach (West Sussex) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Lancing Beach (West Sussex) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Lancing Beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
