Green Tourism

The beautiful landscapes of Enjoy Sussex are one of the main reasons people visit the area and we want to ensure that this natural beauty will be enjoyed by future generations.

When visiting Enjoy Sussex, consider your impact on the environment and make positive choices that will help to keep Sussex special. Instead of the car, use public transport where possible and activities such as walking and cycling are great ways to explore the area without adding to traffic congestion.

Tourism Businesses with a concern for the environment are recognised by the Green Tourism Business Scheme which encourages them to be environmentally friendly - whether serviced or self catering accommodation or a visitor attraction. Assessed businesses are awarded a Bronze, Silver or Gold Award depending on the level of environmental good practice they achieve.
