A Burst of Springtime

Seaford is a very convenient stop off point if you are travelling to the continent using the ferry terminal at Newhaven being only a stone’s throw away from Seaford. It’s a great place to have a break away.

If you like fresh sea air and to be out and about in the springtime there are plenty of things to stimulate all tastes:

  • Bird watching.
  • Cycling.
  • Exploring and looking for fossils.
Seaford is charming sedate and quirky and sparkles in the sun with quaint little shops, a host of antique shops and a traditional tearoom with wooden beams and pink and white check tablecloths. Seaford oozes friendly ambience and feel at ease atmosphere.
Seaford is situated at the foot of the South Downs with Seaford Head forming part of the South Downs and has some of the most breathtaking scenery and idyllic walks in the country with one of it s most famous being the Seven Sisters.
At Seven Sisters Country Park you can meander through the visitor centre located in an 18th century barn with its displays detailing the history, geology and wildlife in the park.
Seaford wraps itself around you
For joggers, walkers, dog walkers, old and young Seaford’s seafront promenade stretches for over one and half miles enticing and inviting you to enjoy it’s ambiance and tranquillity. 
The beach has its own volunteer lifeguards to keep Seaford Bay free from danger and prevent loss of life through drowning.
As Seaford burst into springtime it boasts a myriad of activities including:
 
  • choral society;
  • traditional French market;
  • barn dances;
  • regular folk club;
  • historical guided tours of Seaford, to mention but a few.
Culture or Nature Seaford has it all
Seaford has its own museum located in a Martello Tower located on the seafront and is one of few such towers open to the public in the country.
The town in days gone by had excellent beaches, but in the early 20th century a large breakwater was constructed at Newhaven harbour and the harbour entrance was regularly dredged which cut off the supply of fresh sand to the beach.  In 1987 a massive beach replenishment operation was carried out and about 1 million tonnes of material was dredged from sandbanks out at sea and deposited on the shore.
Small but so much more
While bluebells jingle and crocuses and snowdrops welcome springtime make a point of visiting this quaint coastal town of Seaford with its pleasing mix of architecture, local nature reserve and quirky shops.
