People have flocked in masses to the seafront for the first time since this year's Bonfire Night to enjoy a day out as the weather has improved with some people wearing only shorts and a top.

This is the first time the seafront has been this busy since Bonfire Night as the weather has been poor due to winter, however, people are now starting to return to the coast as the weather starts to get warmer.


The Littlehampton Miniature Railway have began running their services again with many people going for a ride on the mini train. The train runs from Norfolk Gardens (Edge By The Sea Café) to Mewsbrook Park (the Wave). Fares cost £2 for an adult single, a return costs £3.00; a child single (aged 3-14 with under 3s going free) costs £1.50, a return costs £2.00; and a family return (two adults + two children) costs £9.00.


Some people enjoyed a bite to eat and/or a drink at some of the coast's small businesses.


East Green Car Park was also full of cars due to the number of people who drove to the beach.


Dwayne Hards, LCN's founder and a Littlehampton resident, said: "It is great to see our community beginning to enjoy the amazing seafront again and we will continue to see more and more people on the coast as the weather continues to improve."


"I hope all had an amazing Christmas and I wish you all a happy New Year's Eve!"
