Smugglers Adventure (East Sussex)

The Hastings Fishermen’s Museum is within a church built on the Stade in 1852, which fell out of use after the Second World War. In 1956 local people concerned about preserving the maritime history of Hastings took over the old Fishermen’s Church. They knocked down part of a wall and pulled inside one of the last of the luggers (sailing fishing boats), the Enterprise. All around it are many models, photos, paintings, nets, ropes and a wide variety of other fishing artifacts.

Hastings lifeboat station was established in 1858, although earlier lifeboats were around before RNLI.

Alexandra Park is a public park originally planned out by Robert Marnock and occupies approximately 109 acres (0.44 km2). It was formally opened by the Prince and Princess of Wales on 26 June 1882. The park features several small water reservoirs that provide popular locations for leisure fishing within the town. The lower area of the park has several public facilities including a boating lake, war memorial, bowls green, information point, toilets, café, events areas, bandstand and adventure playground. The park hosts the annual Hastings Beer and Music Festival, which takes place in July. In addition, the open air bandstand is used for various band concerts throughout the summer months.
