On Sunday, August 2, temperatures across Sussex are set to hit about 28°C and the forecast is expected to be sunny, with temperatures staying in the high 20s.
People can expect high UV levels and high pollen counts too, so high-factor sun block is recommended if you’re going out.
If you’re planning a family fun day out at the beach this Sunday, which one should you choose and which one should you avoid?
We’ve picked a few of the best beaches in Sussex in this gallery below.
1. Bognor Regis beach

2. Brighton Beach
This one is always a big hit on hot days as it has the Palace Pier, a great town for shopping and lots of places to eat. However, it does have a reputation for getting crowded so maybe it's not the best place for people who want peace and quiet. Keep in mind that it might be extra busy this weekend because of Brighton Pride. Photo: Jon Rigby
