Beautiful pier that delivers stunning views of both sides of Eastbourne. Very well maintained and freshly painted. No entry fee either!

On a nice day at the beginning of the holiday season, it was a real pleasure to walk around on the pier. There was some nice touches, like the full size figures of animals placed in different areas, not to noisy music being played and although not all the kiosk were open, it was still very nice.😎👍😃

Appears to be a well looked after pier but seems to be lacking atmosphere although we did like the glass shop and also the gift shop - both of which sold items at very reasonable prices.

Since the great fire which threatened to wipe out the pier for good, and the improvements made subsequently by it's purchaser, Eastbournes very own eccentric millionnaire Sheikh Abid Gulzar a lot has been said about how it was poorly managed and maintained by its previous owners and the improvements and plans made by its new owner. We are a fan of the pier and think it now looks better than ever, painted up, repaired and with plenty of seating on a large decked area. We miss the old amusements arcade but Mr Gulzar has used some empty units to site some 2p machines and whack a moles etc so there's plenty so see and do still. Good oldy worldy cafe, tat shops, bar and chippy remain, and the odd appearance by brass bands, this is everything a pier should be. Not big enough for large rides but there are a few smaller ride on machines for children to enjoy.
It was a shame that the fishing platform and anglers shop were done away with but there are plans to run boat services from the end which would appeal to more people and if the Sheikhs plan to start charging admission goes ahead, it would be no different to the old days when a small entry fee was charged and he says it would be small anyway.
Its owner has a thing for gold paint and lions, evident in the seafront hotels he also owns, which seem to divide locals, some say it looks gaudy and tacky, others like me think it makes it stand out.
It's never looked or felt better on the pier, make sure you allocate an hour if you're visiting to having a walk along, or buy a bag of chips from the chippy at the entrance and enjoy trying to keep seagulls from nicking them!

A day out to Eastbourne traveled down from Tonbridge via Saint Leonards Warrior Sq.by train it was also nice weather on the day. Road work is going on out side the Station. Lots of shops,restaurants, of all types. Walk to the front towards the Pier and walk on Eastbourne Pier with restaurants, shops, slot machines, bar, rock and fudge shop. Tea room. With views. From the front of the Pier a sightseeing tour that runs for about 50 minutes via Eastbourne Seafront, Beachy Head, Birling Gap, Lighthouse, and area. Hop on Hop off open top bus, every 30 minutes. Enjoyable. Fish and Chip lunch, good price and tasty. A walk along the front past Hotels, bars, restaurants, the Redoute with kids play areas towards the Sovereign Harbour. Plenty to see. Bowling greens, views of the sea. Enjoyable walk on a lovely day out.

Definitely worth the walk to the end of the peer. There are benches to sit on stores and penny arcades to visit. If you want there is also a dining room where you can have high tea. We walked daily to the end of the peer.
