Just returned from the Afton Hotel Eastborne, I can recommend this hotel, great food, friendly & helpful staff, a manager you can see and speak to, which can be a novelty in some hotels.
The Afton is just across from the pier and close to the shopping centre. We will definitely be going back.

A small old lifeboat station, an interesting short history of the Eastbourne lifeboat, a small shop selling RNLI products

Popped in here, as we had a walk on the beach front, and were looking for something we knew the RNLI sold, which this shop had in stock ... so it was a win-win

A lovely informative old style museum with lots of interesting articles and photos to look over. Many marine atrifacts to see and ponder over. Lots of items bought in the shop by my granddaughter for a worthy cause.

This museum is ideally situated on the main Eastbourne promenade and next to the Wish Tower. The museum area is small but interesting. The shop takes up the main area with a good range of goods for toddlers through to oldies and a helpful source of income for the RNLI.

Very nice small museum with a lot of local history and stories. Good gift part. A visit will take twenty minutes to half an hour.

Small shop with very small museum at the back, but don't let that fool you the volunteers that man the desk are a mine of information, if they don't have the answer they have a lot of information in loose leaf books and folders, there is even a chair and desk for you to use while you are looking. (They even found a folder for me with information on the Wish Tower next door). Not a lot of exhibits but all very interesting. It's all free but they do welcome donations or perhaps you might like to buy something.

Never miss these type of places. May be just a shop but an organization like this is run on donations and provides a magnificent service.

A shop really, but at the back had a display with the history of the lifeboat activity on this bit of coastline. Interesting.

A lovely shop selling souvenirs and presents over a wide range of prices. Open every day from 10.00am till 5.00pm in the summer but earlier in the winter. All profits to the RNLI - a very worthy cause. Staff very helpful and all volunteers.

The museum is combined with the shop, but is very interesting. It has historical stuff as well as a list of the more recent RNLI call outs.
