Sovereign Harbour Marina
Latest Reviews
When visiting Eastbourne we always pop down to the marina, if it's a day visit we stop for a bit of lunch at one of the many restaurants or if down for the weekend we always take a taxi from wherever we're staying have a few drinks and eat at Ganges Indian restaurant overlooking the all the boats moored in the marina.
One of our favourite places to visit.

Visited the Harvester which was a great place. Service was quick and waitress was happy and polite. Very spacious and food was excellent, even take Dining Out cards.

What a lovely area to spend the afternoon. Great scenery, superb food, and so relaxing. The boat trip around the harbour was an opportunity to see many boats and very expensive properties, as well learning about the history of the Harbour and Eastbourne in general.
Worth a day out without a doubt !!!!!

A very nice place to sit on a sunny day overlooking fantastic views of the sea and boats. Lots of great restaurants of different styles and price points, all with fairly friendly staff.

This is a great area to visit. Interesting to see the boats entering by way of a Lock system. Plenty of restaurants a couple of bars and plenty of boats!!!

Exactly what it says on the tin 'Marina' boat sales, places to eat, boat trips around the marina, mixture modern housing and flats, car parking free, walks to sea lock to watch boats coming and going possible with planning to walk circuit going over lock bridge and coming back via bridge near shops/restaurants. Small public loos near car park but you will need to be very observant.

Beautiful spot feels almost continental. Excellent selection of restaurants - would highly recommend Pablos - would definitely return

We walked from Eastbourne to Sovereign a distance of three miles. There is a retail park and plenty of restaurants to refresh the weary traveller. The harbour is pretty with a working dock and the return walk was worth the views of this area.

if you park in the harbour car park for free you can walk along the colonnade to the few shops this harbour has to offer. There is a mixture of Thai, Italian and, English restaurants.

Lively marina, with well laid out paths around the area. A chance to watch the locks operating to allow boats to enter and exit the marina. The lifeboat is moored here, so always the possibility of seeing it answer a 'shout'. A good choice of restaurants, which also offer outside seating, so a chance to soak up the sun while enjoying a lovely meal. Also the chance to see our harbour seal basking on the sandbank.
Adjoining retail park offers reasonable variety of shops if you feel the need for some retail therapy.

Wide choice of restauarnts and a bar with live music on certain days. Suit all budgets and tastes. Interesting walk around the harbour crossing over the lock where usually at low tide at least 1 seal regularly sunbathes on the sand banks. Boat trips available around the harbour or motor boat to Beachey Head and back.
Toilets available by wedding dress shop.
Live bands at the Garden Bar on most friday nights.
Large shops, Asda, Next, Boots, recently opened Wilko's, Cinema, Furniture shop, Matalan, TK Max.

Wonderul place to visit,particularly on a sunny day, outside cafes/restaurants and a pretty marina with plenty of boats to admire

A very popular place when the sun is out in summer and al fresco dining is provided by most restaurants. Good walks all around the harbour and if you want a sea view, then walk up to the locks and walk East along by the shingle beach. Barking dogs and inconsiderate people shouting without realising how far a voice can travel in the sea air can be irksome on occasion if you want some peace and quite - while sat on your boat or in your apartment or having an al fresco meal! Avoid The Harvester like the plague unless you feel like punishing yourself.

This is a nice harbour to explore with independent cafes and resturants. One small comment it's extremely hard to get to and back from the bus stop. The bus stop advertised on site isn't in use.

Stopped off for lunch, great views over the harbour and some shopping as well. The mariner is full of boats, felt like we were abroad somewhere. Great little place.

Sovereign Harbour is Eastbourne's jewel in the crown. A beautiful place to relax, dine, enjoy a drink or a coffee, etc. Indian, Italian, Thai, Fish & Chip restaurants offer great choice of dining. A must place to visit.

Always an enjoyable place to visit. The good variety of restaurants and eating venues add to the casual and relaxing continental atmosphere, as do the many yachts and dingys moored nearby.

Apart from the various marine craft take a look at the surrounding buildings; all relatively new but they will age well. There appears to be a slight "dutch" influence in some of the waterside buildings.

The marina is pretty much surrounded by fairly recent housing developments of brick and concrete, which overlook the enclosed water. Walking around the paths along the waterfront, you'll be very luck to sight the sea, as most of the outlook is of buildings on the other side.
However, if you enjoy water or boats, there is plenty to see, and at the centre of the marina is a small mall hosting a number of restaurants / cafes / bars, and a few shops.
Access around is wheelchair / pushchair friendly, and mainly on the level, save for a few ramps at a number of water crossings.
A nice walk, but nothing amazingly special or spectacular...
