Camber Sands is a beach in East Sussex, England, in the village of Camber, near Rye. It is the only sand dune system in East Sussex.[1] Located east of the estuary of the River Rother at Rye Bay, it stretches 3 miles (4.8 km) to just beyond the Kent border, where shingle (pebbles) take over again. It is one of three stretches of sand above the high tide mark east of Poole Bay on England's south coast, the others being West Wittering and Avon Beach. Two holiday resorts near Camber Sands were operated by Pontins and Parkdeans resorts, just off New Lydd Road and Lydd Road, respectively, in the adjoining village of Camber (the Pontins site closed on 30 November 2023).[2]
