A sunny day by the seaside at Brighton – beach views and carousels

A sunny day by the seaside at Brighton, East Sussex, April 2012

Here’s some photos from my trip to Brighton on the south coast earlier in the week. The weather was superb with bright sunny spring skies and barely any wind.

It may have been a Tuesday, but the beach bars were fairly busy, even if the deckchair attendant wasn’t exactly doing a roaring trade.
