Features
Brighton-Seacliff Yacht Club
Brighton Surf Life Saving Club
Brighton Jetty - the jetty was built in 1886 and weathered the sea and storms for over 100 years however it was badly damaged by winter storms in 1994. The jetty was rebuilt using funds supplied by a mobile phone (cell phone) service provider, hence the tower on the end of the jetty. At the shore end of the jetty is a War Memorial arch - traditional Dawn Services are held annually on Anzac Day to commemorate fallen service men and women.
Brighton Beach - a large sandy beach which is patrolled by the local Surf Life Saving Club on weekends and public holidays between November and March. It is currently rated as a least hazardous beach by Surf Lifesaving. A sand replenishment program has been in operation for many years resulting in the beach sand dunes gradually increasing through the program of replacing eroded sand and replanting of the dunes with plants and grasses.
Windsor Theatre - constructed in 1925 and is still operating to this day, showing cinema to the locals (usually two films per night)
Brighton's 'Jetty Road' runs perpendicular to the Esplanade and is home to many restaurants, cafes and the local hotel known as "The Esplanade".
