Much like the North Laine area and often called The South Lanes (albeit incorrectly but it can help with geography!), this is closest to the beach.
Most famous for its independent jewellery shops it has lots of restaurants (mostly branded but a few independents), pubs and a mix of independent shops and slightly more upmarket high street brands.
