14 pictures of Hastings beach sizzling in the summer heatwave sun

People flocked to the beach at the weekend and today as temperatures soared.

Kevin Boorman, marketing and major projects manager at Hastings Borough Council, said Sunday (July 18) was the busiest he had seen it for some time.

He said: “Traditionally our beach is much quieter than others such as Brighton, and usually very few brave the sea, but both beach and sea here were the busiest I’ve seen for a long time.”

However, it was different today (Monday, July 19) with far fewer visitors as people returned to work and children to school.
