Great for walkers, cyclists, families and dog friendly. Walking distance, east of Bexhill seafront, towards Hastings.

A wild very untouristy beach . Great for connecting with the sea and sky. Look out for the outline of the wreck of the Amsterdam at very low tides.

Checkout the tides. At low tide you can walk towards Bexhill to Bulverhythe Beach. The beach is stunning, if you can do this at sunset (tide depending) the light can be breathtaking. It’s also dog friendly 🐾 If like a reasonable walk, there is a great cafe called Oceanside Cafe (there are public toilets just under the bridge) Look out for the Amsterdam shipwreck.

Bulverhythe is predominantly shingle interspersed with groynes. It is a popular spot for swimming and water sports. This beach is the site of the shipwreck ‘the Amsterdam’, the top of which is sometimes visible at low tide. The ship ran aground in 1749 after an outbreak of plague is believed to have sparked a mutiny, during which the sailors got drunk on the wine cargo it was carrying. It is of great historical importance, being the best preserved East India Company ship still around. A replica of the ship can be seen in Amsterdam. Whilst tours of the wreck can be arranged, it is not a good idea to explore it alone as there is quicksand in the area around the wreck. To the west of the beach, a sea wall protects the railway embankment with a promenade behind that leads to Bexhill Beach. Info from thebeachguide.co.uk

This is where, if you're lucky and the tide is low enough, you can see the shipwreck of The Amsterdam which ran aground in 1749, largely due to a lot of the crew having died of the plague, but mainly because the rest of the crew were drunk. It really didn't get very far towards it's destination, Java. There is also an underwater ancient forest there. There's a shipwreck museum in Hastings itself for further info.
