"Bognor: A Coastal Gem with a Rich History" Nestled near the picturesque Felpham Beach in West Sussex, a charming seaside town that has captivated visitors for decades. Dating back to 1905, the iconic Bognor Regis Huts have stood as a testament to the town's enduring allure. One of its most famous attractions, Butlins - Bognor Regis, has been providing endless fun and entertainment since its establishment. Generations of families have created cherished memories within its vibrant walls. In 1910, Bognor earned its nickname "The Place in the Sun" when Londoners flocked here seeking respite from bustling city life. Marine Drive at Bognor, also known as East Parade, offers breathtaking views of the sea and serves as a reminder of this golden era. Transporting us back to simpler times are snapshots from the 1930s – capturing street scenes adorned with charming churches in South Bersted. The lively parade scene showcases how even then, locals reveled in community spirit and celebration. Basking under sunny skies or braving rough seas like true adventurers; swimmers on Bognor beach epitomize summer bliss in August 1920. The crashing waves remind us of nature's untamed beauty during stormy days along these shores. Southdown Omnibus stands tall among nostalgic images – an emblematic symbol of reliable transportation connecting people far and wide throughout Sussex. It represents not just convenience but also unity within this close-knit coastal community. Holiday bungalows dotting Felpham offer glimpses into idyllic getaways enjoyed by vacationers during the enchanting 1930s. These quaint retreats served as havens where families could unwind amidst stunning natural surroundings while creating lasting bonds. As time passes by, one thing remains constant – Bognor's undeniable charm continues to beckon travelers seeking a coastal escape.
