Outside of that, the seafront makes for an excellent outing for most. It hosts a large amount of activities for people of all ages and mobility levels.

There is an assortment shops available selling beach supplies, snacks and more. For more shopping options, Southend High Street is easily accessible either via slopes, ramps and a public lift.

Southend Sea Front is a hub for fish and chip shops, pubs, seaside cafes & restaurants. Many of which have takeaway kiosks for those who want to each on the beach or are on the go.
