Designed for the people, the De La Warr Pavilion is now a creative hotspot for contemporary culture on Bexhill’s elegant seafront. You can't miss it. Beneath it's terrace, a classical colonnade frames broad views across the bay to Beachy Head. In Bexhill-on-Sea, modern vintage shops, quirky places for art and music, and independent cafés and restaurants, defy traditional seaside stereotypes.
This peaceful resort is packed with claims to fame. Its beaches were the first in the UK to offer mixed bathing (scandalous at the time), and its seafront raised the starter flag on Britain's motor racing story. Local boy and international star Eddie Izzard is a regular visitor to his hometown and platinum-selling super group Keane drew inspiration from their childhood trips to Bexhill for their song, 'Sovereign Light Cafe'.
