Welcome to Winchelsea Beach

Winchelsea Beach is a small coastal village located in East Sussex, England. It is situated between the towns of Rye and Hastings and is known for its beautiful pebble beach and stunning views of the English Channel. The village is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, offering a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

One of the main attractions of Winchelsea Beach is its beach, which stretches for miles along the coast. The pebble beach is perfect for long walks, sunbathing, and swimming in the sea. The beach is also a popular spot for fishing, with many locals and visitors casting their lines into the water in search of a catch. The beach is surrounded by beautiful cliffs and rolling hills, providing a picturesque backdrop for a day at the seaside.

In addition to its beach, Winchelsea Beach is also home to a number of charming cafes, restaurants, and shops. Visitors can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee while taking in the stunning views of the sea, or browse the local shops for unique souvenirs and gifts. The village is also home to a number of historic buildings, including the 13th-century church of St. Thomas the Martyr, which is well worth a visit for its beautiful architecture and fascinating history.
