1. The Royal Pavilion
King George IV had the Royal Pavilion built as a summer home for his enjoyment of the coast. But its long history has been filled with unexpected developments.
In 1786 George, Prince of Wales, rented a modest farmhouse in Brighton facing the Old Steine. Being so near to London, the once-decrepit fishing hamlet of Brighton quickly transformed into a thriving coastal resort popular with the affluent.
The Royal Pavilion includes the following must-see attractions:
- The Garden – An integral element of the Royal Pavilion Estate is the Garden. It’s a popular gathering spot in the middle of Brighton and a sanctuary for local animals.
- Banqueting Room – The table is laid for a sumptuous meal under a massive cut-glass chandelier. The Banqueting Room is emblematic of the Royal Pavilion’s opulence and George’s penchant for the finer things in life.
- King’s Great Kitchen – The ‘King’s Kitchen’ was revolutionary in England due to its cutting-edge appliances and out-of-the-ordinary design. That level of service and quality is on par with what you’d expect from a restaurant in France.
- Saloon – The Saloon is meant to be awe-inspiring. Its former radiance has been restored by adding gold and platinum to the vibrant primary colours that originally made up the piece.
- Music Room – The Royal Pavilion was a lively place full of music and dancing. Under the glistening dome, the acoustics are as exquisite as the Chinese-inspired design.
- Royal Bedrooms – When designing the Royal Bedrooms, comfort was prioritised above flash. Nonetheless, one may still see examples of exquisite workmanship and invention, such as hand-painted wallpaper, Chinese watercolours, and a very contemporary pigment.
- Indian Hospital Gallery – During World War One, the Royal Pavilion was converted into a military hospital, an unusual yet interesting use of the building. The effect of the war on Brighton is shown through an exhibition of archival material relating to the local troops’ experiences.
- Royal Pavilion Shop – The shop sells a wide range of souvenirs inspired by the luxurious design of the Royal Pavilion.
2. Booth Museum of Natural History
Hundreds of British birds are on exhibit in simulated habitats at this museum, which is home to almost half a million specimens and natural history literature and data spanning over three centuries. Along with it, there were butterflies, skeletons, a whale, and dinosaur bones. The Booth’s collections may be explored via interactive exhibits at the Discovery Laboratory.
Entry has been free, but the museum has been temporarily closed for improvement works since April 2025, apart from occasional drop-in days, so check before you go.
3. Regency Square
If you want to get a sense of how Brighton looked in the 19th century, a visit to Regency Square is a great place to start. Elegant Georgian-style hotels and white Georgian terraced homes surround a green public space. Take a stroll around this beautifully landscaped open area to see the city as it was in the nineteenth century.
Be impressed by the variety of historic structures that surround the central grassy space. The sea may be seen in all its splendour from the open south side. Pack a picnic and enjoy the beautiful waterfront scenery with your loved ones at this historic location.
Explore the rooftop terraces and balconies that adorn the building’s exteriors. Regency Square is carved onto the pediment of one building. Check out the monument dedicated to the Royal Sussex Regiment’s fallen Boer War soldiers. The contemporary Brighton i360 tower, seen from the plaza’s southern side, provides a striking contrast to the historic buildings around it.
In many ways, the plaza represents the heart of the neighbourhood. In order to aid area citizens and businesses, the Regency Square Area Society was established. Take advantage of the square’s proximity to hotels and B&Bs. The West Pier Arches are on the seafront just below the square.
Brighton’s Regency Square is located on the western edge of the downtown area. About 15 minutes should be spent walking west from the Brighton Palace Pier to reach the destination. Regency Square also has a parking garage where you may keep your car. The Old Market, the Brighton Centre, and the Regency Town House are just a few of the neighbouring attractions worth checking out.
4. i360 Observation Tower
The i360 is, and more, when seen from the outside. It is tall (very tall), tall-minded, audacious, inventive, magnificent, quirky, and flamboyant. From the inside, though, it’s pure happiness.
The i360 has a very unique and brilliant layout. Its glass pod, shaped like a doughnut, serves as an elevator and observation deck, transporting passengers up and down the tower while offering 360-degree views in both directions.
You may stroll all around the glass observation pod and take in the sights of Brighton and the surrounding area, including the South Downs National Park, the UNESCO Biosphere and, on a clear day, far along the coast.
5. Sea Life Brighton
What are some of your favourite marine animals? Which is more fascinating—a school of clownfish, a sea horse, or a swarm of jellyfish? Possibly you just can’t make up your mind! SEA LIFE Brighton is home to more than 5,000 sea creatures.
Eugenius Birch, the man responsible for the West Pier in Brighton, also dreamed of and created the aquarium there. The aquarium has been open continuously since 1872; construction started in 1869.
6. The Regency Town House
The Regency Town House is a terraced home from the 1820s, when it was constructed as part of architect Charles Busby’s ‘Brunswick Town’ complex.
A museum and cultural centre specialising in the built environment and social history of Brighton and Hove between the 1780s and 1840s, the House has come into its own in recent decades.
Both 13 Brunswick Square, where the main structure is, and 10 Brunswick Square, where the Basement Annexe is, have had extensive restoration work done on them.
Plasterwork and mouldings have been restored, and original finishes have been reproduced after years of paint buildup were removed. This enables for the preservation of age-old methods and materials and sheds light on the construction methods of yesteryear.
7. Brighton Pier
The Brighton Pier, also known as the Palace Pier, is one of the most popular attractions in Brighton. The pier dates back to 1899 when it was built to replace an earlier structure that had been destroyed by storms.
The pier is about 525 metres (1,722 feet) long and has shops, places to eat and drink, arcades and funfair rides, including roller coasters.
Brighton Pier is open all year round, weather permitting, and is a short walk from the Royal Pavilion.
8. Hove Museum & Art Gallery
The museum is housed in a beautiful Victorian mansion, and among its many notable holdings is a Contemporary Craft collection widely regarded as the best collection of its sort outside of London. It also honours Hove’s place in cinematic history by showcasing its pioneers.
There are also magical toys from the 18th century to the present day in the Wizard’s Attic, and the galleries for local history and art are a must-see as well.
Additionally, there is a souvenir store in the Hove Museum & Art Gallery.
9. Stanmer Park
Stanmer Park is great for a variety of activities, from a family picnic to a game of soccer with friends to a brisk stroll over the Downs, thanks to its gorgeous wooded paths and expansive open spaces.
Now officially recognised as one of the greatest parks in the nation, Stanmer Park has been honoured with its first Green Flag.
10. Lewes Castle & Barbican House Museum
Lewes Castle, built by William de Warenne as his stronghold in Sussex shortly after 1066 and expanded over the following 300 years, culminating in the majestic Barbican, sits high above the mediaeval towns below.
These and the nearby keep are well worth the challenging hike to the summit for the breathtaking vistas they provide. Visit the adjacent Barbican House Museum to learn about the prehistoric past of Sussex and see rotating exhibits, as well as peruse the ground floor’s specialised history and archaeology bookstore.
