What to do and see in Brighton, England: The Best Things to do Good for Kids

June 8, 2021 Velvet Mowry

Londoners have been traveing to Brighton for beach getaways ever since the railway arrived here in 1841. The pebbled beach, Brighton Pier's amusement arcade and the Royal Pavilion are the main sights, but you'll also find hundreds of pubs and clubs catering to an energetic crowd.

Gus is a super friendly and welcoming guy, and his shop is a gem!! I'm lucky enough to live locally, so pop in regularly to browse his discounted 1st class stamps (..cheaper than the Post Office)! Even if you're just in Brighton for the day, make sure to swing by! He has stamps relating to all interests (from Bowie to Ancient Greece) and for all occasions.

Devil's Dyke National Trust

A legendary beauty spot on the South Downs Devil’s Dyke, just five miles north of Brighton, offers stunning panoramas, a record breaking valley, a curious history and England’s most colourful habitat. At nearly a mile long, the Dyke valley is the longest, deepest and widest 'dry valley' in the UK. Legend has it that the Devil dug this chasm to drown the parishioners of the Weald. On the other hand, scientists believe it was formed naturally just over 10,000 years ago in the last ice age. With a little exploring the Dyke's story starts to reveal itself: The ramparts or walls of the Iron Age hill fort can be seen when you walk around the hill and the remains of the curious Victorian funfair can be found just a few minutes from the car park. Venture into the valley and you will discover a living carpet of flowers and a myriad of colourful insects.

Reviewed By godzillah - Las Vegas, United States

Mild October weather had people out and about during the week to follow three different trails, each with different levels of challenges. Devil's Dyke was a fabulous way to see the Donkey's wheel, have tea at the National Trust cafe and enjoy fabulous views of the Weald. Wellies or hiking boots best and although we had good weather, the trails are narrow and slippery in places. Some stairs in places on the challenging trail. Could have some better signage in places where trails cross but a fabulous excursion from the Brighton beach area. Dog friendly.

Reviewed By juliehF4735UO - Greater London, United Kingdom

It is a mile walk from East Brighton Pier to the Marina where you will find shops, restaurants and bars. There is also a huge Asda there. The walk is along the coastline so you can see the sea, watch the Volks Electric Railway in action, or you can walk along the top road which also has great views.
