It is not everyday that you get to see the sky light up. #sky #southend #dramatic #EmAdventures

The sky does look gorgeous. Beautiful glow about it and beautifully captured, creeping over the Hope Hotel on Southend seafront.

I have no idea how they’ve done this. But it’s stunning. It is very much like a rain of light or fire.

Beautiful shot of the Kursaal :) Probably the most iconic building in Southend-on-Sea, and certainly one of the most beautiful.

The seafront’s buzzing #southend #essex #sun #seafront #beach

With so much amazing weather the past few weeks, and especially now that it’s Summer holidays, the seafront has indeed been abuzz with families and sunbathers. Playing in the sand, paddling in the water, or just relaxing in the sun….

And our favourite photo of the month from Love Southend’s Instagram!

This month, sadly, we saw another fire break out in one of Southend’s most beloved buildings, the Empire Theatre on Alexandra Street. The brave Essex Fire Fighters battled the fire and smoke for hours. What will happen to the building now? Only time will tell.
