- Get inAfter a checkered history ferries to Newhaven run to Dieppe (run by DFDS) throughout the year, taking 5 and 4 hours.
- Get inAlternatively, tickets can be bought at the two ports, the ferry port in Newhaven is on the East Quay, while in Dieppe it is the east of the main harbour, both are well signposted The ferries to Dieppe are some of the newest sailing in the English Channel, and due to the former troubled history of the route (and massive subsidies) this can be cheaper than Dover to Calais, also the view from the ferries of the Seven Sisters and Cuckmere Haven is beautiful.
- Go nextRunning from Eastbourne in the east all the way to Petersfield in the West, spanning three counties the South Downs Way is a popular walking path with numerous books and guides out there.
