Destination Essentials

Brighton idyllically blends a mild, temperate climate with the year-round charm of its attractions, making any time of the year a great visit. However, for the full Brighton experience, soak in the sun, sand, and buoyant atmosphere during the summer months of May to September. This period is peak tourist season, adding a lively charm to the city.

For a more relaxed experience, consider the shoulder months of April and October. It’s a gentler pace, with just as many opportunities to explore Brighton's iconic beachfront, enjoy its vibrant music scene or take a leisurely stroll through the historic lanes.
