Seaford is a traditional seaside town with a colourful history. Once a bustling port, the town became synonymous with smuggling and wrecking in the 16th century. In fact, the people of Seaford were known as the ‘shags’ because of their enthusiasm for looting ships wrecked in the bay. These days, the town has a genteel atmosphere, plenty of food and drink spots, a fine beachfront dotted with brightly-coloured beach huts, shops, accommodation and other attractions.

Nice little town with lots of nice shops and cafes. Unlike other towns in the area, Seaford is not very touristy.
