  • Newhaven Harbour: Take a walk around Newhaven Harbour and admire the boats and the sea views. You can also grab a bite to eat at one of the cafes or restaurants in the area. This can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how much time you want to spend there.
  • Tidemills Beach: If the weather is nice, head over to Tidemills Beach for a relaxing stroll along the coastline. It's a bit of a trek from the town centre, but it's worth it for the scenic views. This should take about 1-2 hours depending on how long you want to stay.
  • Newhaven Museum: Learn more about the town's history and culture at the Newhaven Museum. The exhibits cover everything from fossils to the town's maritime history. It usually takes about 1-2 hours to fully explore the museum.
