Itinerary
1
Beachy Head
Beachy Head is the highest chalk sea cliff in Britain, rising to 162 m (531 ft) above sea level.
The highlight of the tour is to see the iconic red and white striped lighthouse standing 33m tall at the base of the cliff.
10 minutes
2
Birling Gap
Birling Gap is a beautiful and tranquil enclosed pebble beach set below the dramatic backdrop of the Seven Sisters cliffs. We'll see it's famous metal steps allowing visitors to descend to the beach. Close by are the historic Coastguard Cottages which are regrettably being lost to the sea.
5 minutes
3
Belle Tout Lighthouse Lookout
Built in 1832 and decommissioned in 1902, a tea-shop, a home, part-destroyed during the second world war and lovingly rebuilt in the 50's. Owned and filmed by the BBC, moved due to erosion - and now, beautifully restored and renovated.
4
Seven Sisters Country Park
The Seven Sisters are the famous chalk cliffs that form part of the Sussex Heritage Coast.
It is an incredibly popular location for locals and international visitors who come to experience this magnificent stretch of coastline between Seaford and Eastbourne.
Regrettably, it is slowly being eroded by the elements. It’s estimated that 30-40cm of the coastal edge is lost to the sea each year and we'll spend time on the trip to discuss this in more detail.
It is a haven for wildlife, especially migratory birds who enjoy the temperate British summers.

Cuckmere Haven
The beach was commonly used by smugglers in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. It wasn't uncommon for there to be upwards of 200 of them on the beach at that time.
The coastguard cottages at Cuckmere Haven were built shortly after the National Coastguard Service was founded in 1822 in order to stop the smuggling. They are easily one of the most photographed dwellings in the UK today.
