"The beach is a peaceful and untouched stretch of pebbles, offering enjoyable walks all the way to Bognor Regis for those who are interested. There's a fantastic arcade and café where you can grab lunch, and it's always sunny here while neighboring towns often experience heavy rain."

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 Pagham 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 Pagham beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing.
