A 36 metre high observation wheel offering panoramic views will launch the Easter holidays on Eastbourne’s Eastern Seafront.
Located on the beaches east of the Redoubt, the ‘Sky Club’ will operate for four weeks from Saturday 5 April, from morning until evening, offering a bird’s eye view of the seafront towards the harbour and pier.
Alongside the big wheel, children will be able to jump for joy with the addition of the ever-popular bungee trampolines.
An Eastbourne Borough Council spokesperson said “We’re delighted to welcome the Sky Club as a new daytime and evening attraction to the Eastern Seafront. The observation wheel is such a big crowd-pleaser for people of all ages and it will offer the most spectacular views and a new perspective of our wonderful coastline.
“As well as bringing additional footfall to this part of the seafront and to nearby family attractions, it will also light up the seafront’s growing nighttime economy. It’s another exciting thing to put on the to-do list as Eastbourne gears up for a packed programme of events this year.”
Rides cost £7 per adult, £6 per child, £2 for under 3’s or £30 for a gondola (up to 6 people).
Also opening on 5 April, the Dotto Train returns to the seafront with daily services through to 31 October (except 14 – 17 August). Running from Holywell to the Harbour, the train will pass by the Sky Club enroute and travellers can hop off at Fisherman’s Green if they wish to ride the wheel.
