With 5 miles of palm tree-lined promenade and an award-winning coastline, Worthing is not simply just a town to retire to! This charming seaside town is located between the beautiful South Downs and everywhere you look on coach holidays to Worthing you will see the fantastic countryside of East & West Sussex.
Worthing is the largest town in West Sussex and on coach tours you will learn that it was once the centre of the most important flint mining industry. Tools & metal from the Bronze Age as well as coins & pottery from the Iron Age have been found - The Romans also once occupied this area. The Saxons once used Highdown Hill as a Burial Ground and on coach trips on a clear day you may be able to see the Isle of Wight, the Selsey Bill, Chichester Cathedral and Beachy Head from the top!
Visitors started coming to Worthing during the late 18th century, as the medical profession at the time believed that the virtues of seawater could cure virtually all ills. Oscar Wilde found it such a 'charming town' that he spent the summer and autumn of 1894 here writing 'The Importance of Being Earnest' during the mornings and playing with his family in the afternoon.
