Aside from the obvious things that have made Brighton famous such as Brighton Pier, The Pavillion and Brighton Rock to name a few, there is a lot more that Brighton has to offer.
I have been to Brighton many times over the past few years and my favourite thing to do there is to sit on the beach eating fish and chips and just watch the world go by. Brighton beach is a pebble beach but despite this, it is a very comfortable spot to sit and have a quick bite to eat. The beach is also a good starting point for your day trip as it is within close walking distance to everything.
Whilst on the beach, you won't fail to notice both Brightion Piers, the old and the new. Whilst the old pier provides a very atmospheric backdrop to your photos, the new pier provides endless hours of fun. Stuffed with arcade games and fairground rides the pier is a big attraction for tourists and locals alike. It is also very nice to see it at night when it is all lit up and all the people have gone home.
What I love about Brighton though is the shopping. Being the creative hub of the South East outside of London, it is not surprise that the shopping is fantastic. The city centre is populated with a mixture of chain high street stores as well as quirky one off stores providing you with the perfect balance. There is also an area of Brighton called "The Lanes" which houses independant boutiques and shops in a warren of tiny roads that lead to a big plaza.
Brighton is a fantastic place to spend the weekend or a day as there is always so much going on. It is also so easy to find your way around and everyone there is so used to tourists that they are always happy to help you if you get lost. I would reccommend this to anyone beach lovers and non beach lovers alike.
