The town of Bognor Regis is located to the South of Gatwick airport a distance of 48 miles that would take around 1 hour by taxi via the M23, A24 and A29. Bognor Regis is a seaside resort town in the county of West Sussex, on the south coast of England.
Bognor Regis was originally named just "Bognor", being a fishing (and one time, smuggling) village until the 18th century, when it was converted into a resort by Sir Richard Hotham. Tourism gradually took off in Bognor during the 19th century, with the area being chosen as an ideal location for King George V to convalesce during 1929, the King and Queen actually staying at Craigwell House in Aldwick. As a result, the King was asked to bestow the suffix "Regis" ("of the King") on "Bognor".
Bognor Regis experiences an oceanic climate similar to almost all of the United Kingdom albeit sunnier and milder due to its proximity to the coast - It has, at over 1900 hours on average, the highest annual level of sunshine of any UK mainland weather station resulting in Bognor Regis being named the sunniest town in the UK.
One of the town's main attractions is Butlins Bognor Regis Resort, Sir Billy Butlin opened this Butlin's Holiday Camp in Bognor in 1960. The camp later became known as Southcoast World until 1998 and is now known as Butlin's Bognor Regis Resort which houses a large indoor leisure park. Bognor Museum will be able to tell you the story of this famous sea side town's ups and downs and if you enjoy a a hint of nostalgia, why not visit Bognors Picturedrome, which is full of old world charm and modern day comfort!
