Scenic seafront parking with accessible bays, pay-and-display, and quick walk to Brightlingsea sailing club.
Promenade Way Car Park is a council-operated surface facility serving Brightlingseas seafront promenade and sailing club. The lot offers 90 sealed asphalt bays, including four accessible spaces located adjacent to the pedestrian path leading to the yacht club ramp. Pay-and-display machines accept coins and contactless cards; tariffs are £1 per hour with a four-hour maximum stay, and a daily cap of £5 during peak season (AprilOctober); free off-peak. Solar-powered LED bollard lights line pedestrian routes from dusk until 10:00 pm, and two CCTV cameras monitor entrances and accessible bays for security. Covered information boards display tide times, sailing club schedules, and local bus timetables for services to Colchester. Pedestrian pathways link directly to the sailing centre, café, and the North Sea promenade within a one-minute walk. Monthly maintenance includes line repainting, pothole repairs, and litter clearance to preserve the scenic coastal setting.
