A 162-metre tower on the seafront, next to the remains of the West Pier, with a doughnut-shaped glass pod that rises slowly to 138 metres. From the top you see the coast, the pier, the city and the South Downs hills. It opened in 2016.

Buy a timed ticket on its website, where each day's opening hours are also given. For those who want more, the 360 Extreme experience takes you up onto the roof of the pod in a harness. Downstairs there is a café, open from 7:30.
