About Camber, East Sussex

By leaving Rye on the A259 Eastbound and turning right at East Guldeford for a total of 4 miles you will arrive at Camber. The beach is famous for the long ridges of sand dunes leading down to miles of soft golden sands. Camber has been the location for many films, especially if ‘desert shots’ are required. When planning a day on the sands it is well worth checking the local tide tables as the extensive shallows at low tide make for a very long walk before it is deep enough to swim. With such a large open space, power kites are a popular pastime- a very colourful sight to see. It is very busy in the summer months with visitors using the caravan parks,holiday homes and campsites.
