Fantastic beach hut near Rockwater on this popular stretch of Seafront between Hove Lagoon and King Alfred Sports Centre.
FROM THE BEACH HUTTER – WE LOVE IT because the hut is protected by the sea wall but you still get a direct view of the sea. It is close to the showers and opposite the tap. We always make use of the free parking in Langdale Gardens and we have a lockable cupboard which fits our blow up paddle board in.

BEACH HUT 246 – WHY WE LOVE IT
WE LOVE IT because the doors are painted a lovely shade of purple. There is easy access to the pebble beach opposite. The water is so inviting for swimming, paddle-boarding, or kite-surfing when the conditions are right.
