Next, travel south to Dover, famous for its dramatic White Cliffs—the tallest white cliffs in England. For an even more stunning view, stop at Beachy Head. If time allows, swing by Hastings, the site of the legendary 1066 battle. It’s also a great spot for lunch and a walk around Hastings Castle.

End your day in Brighton, where you can park up your camper and experience the city’s buzzing nightlife, live music, and seaside energy.
