The naturist beach at Fairlight Glen lies on the coast between Hastings (about two miles to the west) and Rye to the east. Access is from the cliff-top path through Hastings County Park. The official path down to the beach was destroyed some years ago by a landslip, and hasn’t been replaced. Not to worry! Just duck under the fence by the warning sign (at your own risk, of course), as some locals have done a great job in repairing the path and installing some new steps. The land slip has now greened over, and the bay is really beautiful, well worth the steep climb back up to the cliff top. The bay is a little narrow at high tide, but quite big at low tide. Look out for submerged rocks if swimming (surf shoes are a good idea).

To get here, park in Hastings Country Park Car Park (50°52’32.2″N 0°37’32.7″E), walk to the end of the unnamed road, turn right following the trees and keep going down till you find the warning sign at the landslip.
