Eastbourne, England Attractions

 
Eastbourne (pop. 88,000) is one of England's most elegant seaside resorts. Originally a simple fishing village, it was developed in the mid-19th century by the seventh Duke of Devonshire into a large beach resort in the Victorian style. A 3mi/5km-long elegant seafront promenade extends along Beachy Head cliff and the wide beaches. A marvelous holiday atmosphere is achieved by Grande Parade (mid-19th century), lined with magnificent white and pastel-shaded houses and luxury hotels, and the brightly-colored deckchairs on the beach. At the end of the wide mole the iron pier projects far out to sea behind the theater arena with its music pavilion and winter garden.
