The British Airways i360 tower at dusk on the seafront of Brighton

Since the summer of 2016, visitors to the seaside resort of Brighton have been able to glide 450 feet into the air via the British Airways i360. The observation tower, which was designed by the same team behind the London Eye, offers 360-degree panoramic views across Brighton, the South Downs and English Channel. On a clear day, it's possible to see Beachy Head 17 miles to the east and the Isle of Wight 49 miles to the west.
