Buses: Get on Board
Brighton & Hove Buses the only way to travel
This week: Seven Sisters country park
The best way to get between Brighton, Newhaven, Seaford and Eastbourne is the Coaster (whether for work, shopping or an evening in Brighton), the last bus back isn’t until after 11pm all week. It’s also a fantastic way to get out and about in the fresh air and enjoy what is probably the finest coastal scenery in the south east. Whether it’s a gentle stroll or an invigorating walk, there are spectacular views everywhere. And you don’t have to retrace your steps, catch another bus further along! Or just sit upstairs and watch all that magnificent scenery from the comfort of your bus seat.
Smart, stylish, comfortable, eco-friendly double-deck buses run up to every 10 minutes Mondays to Saturdays, every 15 minutes on Sundays. For a faster journey use the 12X buses, which are limited stop between Brighton and Seaford, every 30 minutes on Mondays to Saturdays. New buses on the route are fitted with Free WiFi.
They have wide doors with a stepfree entrance, a level floor downstairs and fabulous views from the big picture windows upstairs. We should all be using our cars less, particularly when there is a good alternative. Add in parking problems and cost, and you can see that going by Coaster makes sense.
Between Seaford and Eastbourne the views are spectacular, and there are plenty of things to see and do to enjoy a great day out in this magnificent corner of Sussex.
Seven Sisters Visitors’ Centre is a good start to finding out about the area. They can advise you of the best walks to suit your interests, ability and how much time to allow. And there’s a marvellous café!
HOW TO GET THERE:
Catch Coaster 12 to the Seven Sisters Country Park. The bus drops off at the Park Centre.
Up to every 10 minutes Monday to Saturday and up to every 15 minutes on Sundays and Public Holidays.
The journey takes just over an hour from Brighton city centre but you get to travel through some fantastic coast line.
