The Lanes & seafront

Narrow shopping lanes, the Palace Pier, the i360 and the pebble beach in the centre of Brighton

Willkommen in der Gegend

Narrow shopping lanes, the Palace Pier, the i360 and the pebble beach in the centre of Brighton

The Lanes are a tangle of narrow alleys between North Street and the sea, lined with small shops, jewellers, cafés and restaurants. Just south, the King's Road and Madeira Drive run along the pebble beach.

Brighton Palace Pier stands opposite the Old Steine, and to the west the i360 tower rises beside the ruined West Pier. The King's Road arches below the promenade hold the Fishing Museum, small galleries, bars and places to eat.

Walk down from the station

Swim between the flags
