Welcome to Next Wave

What is Next Wave? The Next Wave project will see the regeneration of Bexhill's seafront to create a more attractive offer for visitors and residents.

As one of the great planned seaside resorts, the seafront of Bexhill-on-Sea on the South East Coast, has always been the town's greatest cultural asset, and fundamental to why people have visited, lived and invested in the town over the last hundred years.

The "Next Wave" project capitalises on the De La Warr Pavilion, to place the seafront at the centre of Rother District Council's regeneration proposals for the town. The scheme, investing a total of £5million, was awarded a £1million grant by The Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment (CABE). Work on the project started in May 2010 and is split into two phases: Phase 1 - re-landscaping of West Parade Promenade and Phase 2 - redevelopment of the King George V Colonnade, re-build of the Rowing Club and re-landscaping of the Metropole Lawn and promenade.
