Hove West Beach is a sand and shingle beach, situated adjacent to the centre of Hove, which is part of the Brighton and Hove metropolis. The beach is interspersed by regular groynes and backed by a long esplanade with a cycle lane, as well as Hove Lawns, a grassy area. The esplanade offers a range of facilities, including cafes, a bowling club, a tennis club, a leisure centre, an amusement arcade, and crazy golf.
The beach is a popular spot for swimming, as well as water sports such as surfing and sailing. Visitors can also enjoy a range of activities, including paddleboarding, wakeboarding, and sailing, at Lagoon Watersports, located on the eastern side of the beach. The beach is also home to a large children's play area, a skate park, and an outdoor paddling pool.
The closest parking from the beach can be found on Hove Street, with access to the beach down a slipway. This includes a number of disabled spaces. Beach wheelchairs are available for hire at Brighton and Hove Seafront Office to the east of the beach. Further parking can be found along Kingsway, the main road that is set back from the beach, towards Brighton Pier.
The beach is dog friendly, although there are restrictions in some areas from 1 May to 30 September. Visitors can enjoy a meal at The View Seafront restaurant, and there are plenty of facilities within walking distance. The centre of Brighton, with all of the facilities of a large city, including a railway station with regular services into London, is about a mile to the east of the beach.
Hove West Beach is located just a quarter of a mile west of Brighton beach and offers a slightly more subdued atmosphere. The beach is shingle with sand exposed at low tide, and Hove Lawns provide a perfect spot for picnics and relaxation.
