Sightseeing
Take a good, mile long, breezy walk down the UKs second longest iron pier. A grade 2 listed building dating back to 1860. If you don't want to walk take the tram to the Pavilion at the end for an ice cream, coffee or a glass of wine and play the vintage slot machines

The best way to see the Marine Lake is on foot, or by bike. The lake itself is one of Britain’s largest man-made leisure lakes and is home to sailing, pleasure cruising, rowing and many high-adrenalin water sports. The Lakeside Inn on the Promenade is Britain’s smallest pub, while the elegant Victorian Gardens surrounding the Marine Lake offer crazy golf, pitch and put, miniature railway and, of course, acres of manicured lawns offering an abundance of floral beauty and opportunity to kick a ball or throw a Frisbee!
