Southsea, which got its name from the 16th century Southsea Castle, became a fashionable destination for bathing and other seaside leisure activities in the early 19th century. Today, it remains a vibrant, traditional resort town with plenty of visitor attractions.

Southsea beach stretches from Old Portsmouth to Easthey. The beach itself is made up mainly of flinty shingle, although a stretch of sand is exposed at low tide.
