BRIGHTON MARINA
An amazing range of shops
are scattered in and around
Brighton Marina. Located a
mile east of Brighton Pier, the
complex is the ideal place
to while a few hours while
indulging in a spot of waterfront
retail therapy. Against the
backdrop of the pleasant
quayside, visitors will discover a
brace of quirky specialist shops.
The outlets are numerous,
with stores dedicated to home
furnishings, fashion, beauty,
accessories and books. If you
want to try something new,
why don’t you pay a visit to
Laughing Dog? The walls of
this independent ‘refuge for
shopaholics’ are adorned with
striking works of original art.
The name, incidentally, refers
to the shop’s policy on dogs –
which is most definitely friendly.
Pop in with your pet and enjoy
a freshly-brewed coffee as
you appreciate the artwork.
Elsewhere, there’s an electric
bike shop, an estate agent,
a beauty salon, a dentist’s
surgery and a hand car wash.
Indeed, the complex feels more
like a town within a town than a
far-flung outpost for shoppers;
added facilities include pubs,
restaurants, a casino, a bowling
alley, a David Lloyd fitness
centre and a multiplex cinema.
Oh, and don’t worry about the
parking – it’s free.
