About

King Edward's Parade is a wide, level promenade running along Eastbourne's seafront, directly facing the English Channel. The area is defined by its lengthy stretch of paved walkway, flanked by a mix of residential buildings, hotels, and green lawns. It serves primarily as a route for walking and cycling, offering unobstructed views of the sea and the distinctive Beachy Head cliffs to the west. The atmosphere is typically calm, focused on the coastal panorama and the steady movement of the water.

The parade is anchored by the Wish Tower, a well-preserved Martello tower built in the early 19th century for coastal defence. This historic structure, now a museum, provides a specific focal point along the esplanade. The area's character is functional and open, with benches spaced along the promenade for resting and observing the marine activity. It connects directly to the more central pier area but maintains a quieter, more residential feel.
