Sometimes it's worth the effort of venturing out when the conditions are less than ideal!
One of the most stunning sights of the many in the South Downs National Park must be the chalk cliffs of the Seven Sisters.
This area is a magnet for photographers and tourists alike, whether approached from South Barn car park and the classic scene with the Coastguard Cottages in the foreground, the light house at Beachy Head or the spectacle of the the cliffs in storm light as scene from the cliff top close to Birling Gap, as illustrated here.
Birling Gap is a perfect spot to experience the Seven Sisters; it's accessible by bus and there is ample car parking. The beach may be reached by means of metal steps down to the shingle beach. Birling Gap café serves food and there are public conveniences.
