A walk around the Beachy Head Lighthouse in aid of Charity - 14th June 2026

There are in fact very few days when it is possible to walk around the lighthouse as it has to take place during spring tides, when it is light enough and on a weekend – this year it is planned to take place on Sunday 14th June 2026.

The arrival point will be at the kiosk at the foot of the Downs by St. Bede’s school in Eastbourne before 4pm. On arrival, participants proceed up the lane for approximately half a mile to Whitbread Hollow where you will find the check-in desks.

Once checked-in we set off across the Downs to Cow Gap (approx. 15 minutes), down the steps to the beach and over the rocks, boulders, sand and slippery seaweed to the lighthouse (average 60 minutes).

On return, all participants will receive a certificate to authenticate that they are one of the few people who have undertaken the “Lighthouse Challenge”.
