Step 1: This new coastal walk was brought to you in partnership with TOG24 and National Trails to celebrate the renaming of the King Charles III England Coast Path (KCIII ECP). Expect family-friendly fun, lovely beaches and vitamin sea!

Step 2: Start at the bronze Verity sculpture by Damian Hirst at the edge of the pier car park. It was installed in 2012.

Step 3: The nearest bus stop is Ropery Road, served by the 21, 21A, 31 and EXMO.

Step 4: Looking back towards the town, turn right towards the sea to skirt the edge of the car park. A land train leaves from here.

Step 5: Look back towards Verity to appreciate both sides of the pregnant woman sculpture, said to symbolise truth and justice.

Step 6: At the very edge of the harbour entrance here you'll have great views across to Hillsborough or 'the sleeping elephant'.
