A walk round Beachy Head from Birling Gap to Cow Gap on the rocks is a definite “to do” while visiting Eastbourne.
It is a beautiful and dangerous spot. It is best to go when the tide is half way out, in summer when the rocks have a chance to dry.

As reported last week, 50 chalk falls a year is less than one a week, less than one in 168 hours.
It was a rare sight to see and I lived to tell the tale.
