Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve is a 'must see'. It is a unique area of maritime cliff with a cliff top area of maritime acid grassland and heath, gill woodland (including some ancient woodland), scrub, neutral grassland, and amenity grassland. The cliffs at Hastings Country Park constitute the largest area of the High Weald ridge that meets the sea. This sandstone and clay coastline is uniquely positioned between the alluvial plains of Rye Bay and Pevensey Bay and the chalk of the North and South Downs.
Rye is an ancient town situated on the south coast of England in the county of East Sussex.  It has its own harbour and is part of the 1000 year old Cinque Ports defence association of south east England.  Nowadays, it is very much a tourist attraction, with its own thriving market. 
 
From the tower of the 12th century St Mary's church, one looks down at a town which has altered little through the ages. Handsome Georgian buildings jostle half timbered Tudor houses in the cobbled streets, unchanged for hundreds of years. The Ypres Tower, the Landgate and Town Wall all provide great photo opportunities. But, Rye provides the visitor with many other pleasures too.
 
Apart from brilliant views, antique shops, art galleries, book shops and potteries, there are tea shops serving delicious home made cakes and scones with Sussex cream, splendid old inns, some still selling locally brewed 'real ale' for the dedicated beer drinker and a wide variety of fine restaurants to suit every taste and pocket.
Rye Harbour Nature Reserve is a mosaic of habitats beside the sea with shingle, salt marsh, sand dunes, rivers, pits, grazing marsh, reed beds and farmland. Full of wildlife for you to discover keeping bird watchers occupied all year round. Rye harbour is also very popular with sailing enthusiasts.

Amusement Park, Promenade.
This large amusement park is the premier outdoor entertainment facility in Hastings. Featuring a wealth of white knuckle rides including roller coasters and waltzers it attracts a great many tourists during the summer months. Conveniently located in the centre of Hastings, close to the sea, the facility operates a pay per ride system so you can visit for as long or as little as you wish.
 
 
Beach Trampolines, Promenade.
The beach trampoline complex is an extremely popular facility. It has several large scale trampolines that can be hired by children to play on and practice their skills. The trampolines are rented on a short term system and there is no need to book in advance. Adequate facility for adults to watch.
 
 
Boating Lake, Promenade.
Located at the very heart of Hastings just a few metres from the beach, this boating lake has for generations been a fun facility for locals and tourists alike. The lake offers great sea views and is now populated by interesting oversized swan boats that you can peddle around. The facility is popular with young children and families.
 
Hastings blue reef aquarium.
 
With three hearts, blue blood, and the ability to change both its shape and colour it's little wonder that the octopus has amazed and terrified mankind for centuries. However it's less well known that they are also among the ocean's most intelligent inhabitants - capable of solving complex puzzles and tests of memory. Blue Reef Aquarium has an octopus that can unscrew jam jars to get at the food inside!
