A little history
Littlehampton has been a seaside resort since the Victorian era. The East Beach Cafe (2007), designed by Thomas Heatherwick, won numerous architectural awards and features the world's longest bench — a sinuous rusted steel structure along the seafront. The River Arun estuary gives the town a beautiful harbour.
The East Beach Cafe is genuinely extraordinary architecture — the world's longest bench is remarkable. The beach is excellent. The Arun estuary walk. The harbour for fresh fish and crab.
