Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Goring-by-Sea beach (West Sussex) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Goring-by-Sea beach (West Sussex) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Goring-by-Sea beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

I only took a stroll along the beach, which was safe but had a path and some rocky areas. There was plenty of parking available, but it was quite crowded. The beach had large grassy sections, where many parties and people were enjoying picnics. At one end, there was a bustling cafe. It's a place that dog lovers would particularly enjoy.

Just a few meters from my house, this beach has nothing to dislike. With a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius today, it's absolutely perfect for kayaking and pleasantly uncrowded. 👌

This beach is a wonderful spot to relax and let go of your worries. While there may not be many amenities in the area, you'll be rewarded with a peaceful and uncrowded coastal walk, a lush meadow, a pleasant café with public restrooms, and ample free or affordable parking options. It's a great place to spend a day with your family, thanks to its charming pebble beach. I highly recommend it.

It's a fantastic spot to relax on the weekends. They offer free parking and it's a family-friendly beach. Plus, you can bring your dogs along and there's even a designated area just for them. We had a delightful picnic there and enjoyed our time in the water. It's not as crowded as other beaches, which is something I really appreciate. And the best part is, it's less than a two-hour drive from London.
