Map of the UK

Seaford East is the eastern part of the coastal town of Seaford in the district of Lewes, East Sussex, England. The ward runs from the seafront and pebble beaches inland towards residential streets and the slopes of the chalk downs, with easy views across the English Channel and close access to the Seaford Head nature reserve and its coastal clifftops.

Historically tied to fishing and small‑scale local trade, the area today combines holiday‑season bustle, a strong retired population and regular commuters to nearby Brighton and Lewes. Local life centres on seafront cafes, independent shops and community facilities, while ongoing concerns include coastal defence, conservation of the downland and sustaining services for a mixed-age population.
