The Brighton Pier (actual name: Brighton Marine Palace and Pier), is a pleasure pier located on the Southern Coast of Great Britain. It was built in 1899, which means it's been providing "pleasure" for 115 years. Whew! It must be exhausted!
Obviously the pier and the beach are a huge tourist attraction for the town. The pier is very family friendly with carnival games, rides and entertainment for all ages, so be prepared for a lot of HIGH ENERGY. The pier was fun to walk down, although I was nervous about losing my fedora the whole time. Quite windy! We were in Brighton on a Wednesday during work hours and it was only slightly crowded, so I assume this place gets pretty crazy on the weekends. Oh! And go ahead and feed the seagulls. There are signs all over screaming, "DON'T FEED THE SEAGULLS YOU A$$HOLES!" but people were doing it anyways. Can't fix stupid.
The pebble beach was much more calm. Plenty of beach-side restaurants to sit and have a pint, a carousel and a few attractions for young children and lots of little shops to pop in for souvenirs. I love how you can rent those super iconic chairs to layout on the beach, they make me think of the 1950's. The weather was pretty chilly while we were there mid April, but I'm sure once the weather picks up this area will be swarmed.

ReplyDeleteThanks girl! First time out with the new DSLR and I like what I'm twerkin' with :)
DeleteLove your pics! What photo editing program are you using?
ReplyDeleteI don't have an editing program right now. I can't download software on my Chromebook... UGH! Don't get me started. All but two of these pictures were taken with my DSLR so I didn't filter them. I did crop and "enhance" a few of the pictures with the standard Chromebook edit button. I do edit all my iPhone pictures with filters though.
DeleteWell they look great!! ;)
DeleteGreat pictures! Such a sunny day too, I've only been there in winter... Hope to go back and see it in its full glory :)
