If you are in the area, a walk up Highdown Hill gives you wonderful views across the downs, town and towards the sea. A great place for dog walks, family walks and picnics and photography. Proximity to the tea rooms, hotel, bar and restaurant mean that you can combine the walk with refreshments.

A very peaceful garden to stroll around. A lovely café as well as a putting green. Just across from the beach. Keep visiting, as there is a lot of planting going on and the fountain will be upgraded next year,

The gently sloping beach is sand and shingle, with most of the sandier parts being covered at high tide. At low tide some rock pools are uncovered. Little shells or sea glass but I found some hag stones. No lifeguard service but there is zoning for water sports. Worthing Pier built in 1862 is along the beach and has public restrooms to the right of the entrance There is some parking along Marine Parade with direct access to the beach. There is also a large multi- storey car park, adjacent to the beach and more parking around the town. There are lots of cafes and restaurants in the town just a short walk from the clean beach.
