EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph from the 1930s, the shores of Littlehampton, Sussex, come alive with holidaymakers eager to soak up the sun and enjoy the simple pleasures of a seaside getaway. The expansive, crowded beach is dotted with an array of deckchairs, each occupied by a person or small family, all taking a break from their daily routines and embracing the carefree spirit of summer. The crisp, cool shingle stretches out towards the horizon, providing a stark contrast to the warm, golden sand further out, where children play and build sandcastles. The gentle lull of the waves crashing against the shore adds to the serene atmosphere, creating a sense of tranquility amidst the bustling scene. The holidaymakers, dressed in their best summer attire, appear content and relaxed, their expressions reflecting the joy and relief that comes from a well-deserved break. The sun casts long, playful shadows across the beach, adding depth and texture to the scene, while the clear blue sky overhead is speckled with the occasional fluffy cloud. Littlehampton Beach, with its picturesque coastline and inviting waters, has long been a popular destination for holidaymakers seeking a respite from their daily lives. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the essence of a bygone era, when the simple pleasures of a day at the beach were enough to bring happiness and rejuvenation.
