Directions

From Pevensey Bay, follow Coast Rd heading east towards Norman’s Bay.

Heading out of Pevensey Bay, the beachfront bungalows on the right hand side of Coast Road come to an end on the opposite side of the road to Normans Bay Camping and Caravanning Club Site (BN24 6PR) on the left.  There is ample space for parking vehicles at the side of the road to the west (Pevensey Bay side) of the campsite entrance, where the beach close to the end of the bungalows can be accessed via a gate.. Alternatively, there is limited space further along Coast Road,  just opposite the large campsite sanitary units (with the green doors) at the eastern end of the campsite.

Billy’s Tower is the Martello Tower visible along Norman’s Bay beach to the east.
