Green Tourism

 

So – green at home, green on holiday too?

 

We all ’do our bit’ for the planet at home, so why stop when you’re travelling or on holiday?

 

To ensure we can all enjoy Sussex by the Sea for years to come, we would like to let you into some Sustainable Sussex by the Sea Secrets.

 

Download your own copy of the Susses by the Sea brochure without resorting to print.

 

Travel by train or bus to Sussex by the Sea.  With great regular connections from London, Gatwick and along the South Coast, you can safely leave your car at home. Click on the links to find out about the ‘greenness’ of these forms of transport.

 

If you must travel by car,  once you are here, see if you can leave it at your visitor accommodation,and take time to explore the area by foot, bike boat, bus or train. You’ll get to see much more and save on parking too!

 

Try your hand at sailing, fishing or diving, on the River Arun or along the coast. You’ll get to enjoy all that natural fresh air in the best of ways. Of ‘course’, another way to be  ‘Green’ is by playing Golf at the many local courses,

 

We are happy to support the Green Tourism Business Scheme and The Green Start Scheme from VisitBritain. If you are looking for a place to stay  which holds the same green ethos that you subscribe to, just enter the ‘green’ keyword into the Where to Stay search facility to find properties who are part of these schemes.

 

Ask your accommodation provider, or better still the Visitor Information Centres, for details of local buses, trains, cycle routes, and where to buy locally produced crafts.

 

Pack a picnic – with lots of local produce and other goodies available at Farm Shops and Markets, you can create your own Sussex by the sea picnic and take your pick (nic) to some sensational spots to enjoy it!

 

Don’t let your recycling take a holiday – it’s just as important when you’re out and about! Your visitor accommodation provider is sure to have recycling facilities, so please ask.

 

Support the local shops and restaurants during your stay and sustain the local tourism industry for others to enjoy – and you too – on your next visit!

 

Sussex by the Sea is blessed with beautiful clean beaches, fabulous countryside and vibrant town and village centres. 

 

We are very happy to share all this with you, hopefully for years to come, so take in a good lungful of  fresh Sussex by the Sea air………and enjoy!
