Miniature trains travel up and down the promenade where bandstand entertainment featuring a range of live music, Punch & Judy and Magic shows take place.

Bognor Pier is one of the oldest in Britain. It was originally 305 metres (1,000 ft) long, but has been slowly shrinking! The pavilion end sank in 1965, and a 20 metre mid section was swept away in a 1999 storm. Opposite the Pier is The Steyne, with many Regency buildings listed as of “special interest.” A drinking fountain commemorates the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria.

Butlins lies at the eastern end of the promenade and is the largest holiday centre in the South of England. Day visitors and staying guests are welcome and new for 2005 is a hotel in the shape of an ocean liner!

The history of the town can be discovered at Bognor Regis Museum incorporating Bognor Regis Wireless Museum where you can try your hand at Morse code!

Our Lady of Sorrows Church was designed by Joseph A. Hansom in partnership with his father who built Arundel Cathedral and designed the Hansom cab. Unfortunately, his full Gothic design was not completed due to lack of funds!

For relaxing walks among shady trees, visit Hotham Park. During the summer, enjoy live music and entertainment on the bandstand. Nearby is the Ice House - the original18th Century refrigerator of Hotham Park Estate and the best surviving example of its kind in Sussex.

If it is action you are after, you won’t be disappointed. There is windsurfing, jet skiing, dinghy sailing and swimming both inside at the Arun Leisure Centre & Fred Lyons Pool or, of course, in the sea!. If you prefer dry land, there’s tennis, mini-golf (or crazy!) and bowls to name but a few. We also have Town and Park walks or a great seaside promenade walk taking you west to Aldwick or east to Felpham.

At night, the town comes alive with a great mix of bars, cafés and restaurants. For an evening adventure, dance the night away at one of the two Nightclubs in the town - including one on the pier!
