Worthing nestles between five miles of coastline and the beautiful South Downs, Worthing was a mere fishing village when Princess Amelia, youngest daughter of King George 111 visited it in 1798. Over the following fourteen years it began to develop as a seaside resort.

Although it now has a bustling commercial centre Worthing has retained all the traditional facilities of a South Coast resort. The award winning beach and waters are complemented by the cafes and kiosks which provide welcome refreshment, and the pier, one of the oldest in the country, offers entertainment for all the family.

Being the largest town in West Sussex Worthing has a thriving shopping centre with all the major stores expected of a popular resort. The sunny climate here in the South of England has resulted in a number of pavement cafes, where diners can eat 'alfresco' and watch the world go by.

Active visitors can try windsurfing, cycling, tennis, swimming, golf or walking and from May to September there are guided walks, which reveal Worthing's smuggling history, its royal connections and much more.

In and around Worthing there is much to see and do and the local Tourist Information Centre stocks maps and guides to help visitors make the most of their stay
