If you’ve got bored with London, pay this suburb a visit!

#2024mapped Eastbourne is 2hr drive away from London, which makes it an easy destination for a weekend getaway, or a detour option from a typical London travel itinerary. And Seven Sister Cliff, which is located within 10km vicinity of the town of Eastbourne, is definitely worth the visit. There are three viewpoints: 1) Coastguard Cottages, 2) Birling Gap, 3) Beachy Head Lighthouse Each of them has their own advantages: the cottages in Coastguard Cottages make perfect foreground for photography, and has legally free parking lots; Birling Gap has the easiest access to the pebbles beach; Beachy Head Lighthouse, facing westward, is the better spot to catch a sunset. I’d recommend to visit all of them if possible, in the order I mentioned, because it would be the west-to-east order, and the access to the pebbles beach would be closed when it’s high tides. But if one has to choose one, Coastguard Cottages would be hands down the best option because it offers most varied view when it’s on low tides. On a side note, the pier in Eastbourne is worth checking out too. And on the way to Eastbourne from London, it’s possible to make a quick detour to Ouse Valley Viaduct for an “infinity viaduct” kinda shot (but it’s SUPER muddy to walk to the photo spot)
