流行的观点认为布赖顿直到18世纪还是一个小渔村,这在某种程度上是正确的,因为那时该镇已经衰落,在18世纪中叶才作为游客的麦加发展了消费经济而重生,但其实 1660年代的布赖顿,人口超过4000,已经是该郡最大的城镇,绝对数目轻松胜过刘易斯和Chichester。回到熟悉的故事,Brighthelmstone的变化开始于1753年,刘易斯的理查德罗素医生发表关于海水浴的论文,赞扬布赖顿海水对健康的益处。他在此建造房屋,不久,富人和病人开始来到海滨。流行的结论使它恢复了雄心,Steine的Marlborough House,布赖顿由罗伯特亚当建于1765年,不久被eponymous公爵买下。1780年,摄政terraces开始发展,该市迅速成为时髦的度假胜地。该市的成长受到鼓励,1786年,年轻的摄政王,后来的国王乔治四世,租用了一处农舍以逃离公众生活。最终他在该市度过大量闲暇时光,建造了异国情调的皇家穹顶宫,成了该市最著名的标志。Kemp Town(Kemptown 区的心脏)建造于1823年-1855年,是摄政时期建筑的好范例。游客受到1840年通车的伦敦-布赖顿铁路的鼓励,还建造了最早的铁路机车工厂之一。
使馆庭院是布赖顿和霍夫海滨最迷人的建筑之一,尽管其原因在这些年间有不同的解释。在1935年建造时,建筑师Welles Coates设计,该建筑与国王路的更庄重的装饰性的建筑形成鲜明对比;但在1990年代,该建筑由于性能急剧恶化引来批评。该建筑因为一大块墙灰和窗户落到下面的街上上了报纸,又因为西码头的倒塌命运再度堪忧。幸运的是 this proved not to be the case - a consortium formed by residents and owners were able to wrestle the freehold of 该建筑 from the previous inneffectual management 公司,恢复开始于2004年,完成于2005年秋季。现在已经恢复了1930年代的荣耀。
老西码头,由Eugenius Birch建于1866年,已于1975年关闭并朽坏, 等待修复。西码头是英国仅有的2个列为1级保护建筑的码头之一,另一个是Clevedon 码头。西码头财产计划得到遗产彩票基金的帮助修复码头,遭到一些当地居民反对。布赖顿皇宫码头的业主,原来重建计划的支持者(1996 "码头年" was launched from there by then 文化 Secretary Virginia Bottomley) went on to back the objectors who claimed subsidised 如果重建,将是不公平竞争。这是一种短视的态度,因为这些码头将引来不同的顾客。许多人将被吸引到布赖顿,可以预想到旅游业的迅速增长。
2002年12月29日,西码头部分坍塌,连接音乐厅和穹形宫的人行道塌入海中 after being battered by storms。2003年1月20日destruction 码头中间的音乐厅进一步崩塌。2003年3月28日穹形宫 at the end of 码头失火。消防队未能拯救该建筑,由于他们未能到达码头的末端—前一次坍塌已经毁坏了人行道。火灾的原因还不清楚。2003年5月12日再次失火,consuming most of what was left of 音乐厅。怀疑是有人故意纵火。西码头 Trust refers to 这些火灾是'职业纵火犯'所为,(notwithstanding that there is no evidence linking the fires to 皇宫码头的业主)。2004年6月23日的强风引起码头中部完全崩塌。
Despite all these setbacks, the owner of the site 西码头财产 remained adamant 他们将马上开始完全恢复工作。Finally,2004年12月,the Trust admitted defeat, after their plans were rejected by 遗产彩票基金 and subsequent less ambitious 规划只恢复最古老, 码头的结构部分 were also rejected by 英国遗产。2005年9月 财产 revealed in their newsletter that they are forming 进一步规划重建原有建筑 得到私人资金的帮助。
布赖顿有一个更主要的码头,布赖顿连锁 Suspension 码头 ("连锁码头") 由Captain Samuel Brown设计,RN 建于1823年。码头was primarily intended as a landing stage for packet boats to Dieppe,布赖顿没有天然港,but it also featured a small number of attractions including initially a camera obscura. An esplanade with an entrance toll-booth controlled access to 该码头which was roughly in line with today's New Steine。J. M. W. Turner和约翰·康斯特勃都画过该码头,威廉四世在此登陆,这里甚至是一首歌曲的主题。
连锁码头survived construction of 西码头,但允许建造皇宫码头的条件是建造者 would dismantle 最古老的码头。They were saved this task by a storm which destroyed 已经关闭 and rather decrepit 码头 于1896年12月4日. The stubby remains of some of 码头的铁piles, sunk ten feet into bedrock, can still be seen at the most extreme low tides.
有人认为布赖顿的邻居霍夫比布赖顿位置更好,当地人经常说"事实上是霍夫"。这是因为当人问一个霍夫居民是否住在布赖顿,他们时常回答 "不,事实上是霍夫!"。霍夫火车站旁的酒吧曾经叫作Bertie Belcher的布赖顿啤酒公司 在Hedgehog和Hogshead - 事实上是霍夫! - 现已改名车站。

布赖顿由于大量政治运动和活动,被看作是一个相当进步的城市,包括当地通讯SchNEWS。这被2005年大选中绿党赢得皇家穹顶宫这里的选民22%选票所证明,全国统计只有1%。
在布赖顿有大量的酒吧和夜总会,带来了酒鬼和流浪汉问题,限制了一些地区街上的酒精消费。英国一些最重要的俱乐部舞蹈音乐场景以布赖顿为基地,如攻击,蜜糖俱乐部和海洋屋,和著名但现在rebranded Escape, which has become Audio。此外,布莱顿有活跃的男同性恋和女同性恋场景,集中在该市的Kemptown地区。布赖顿还是a selection of rock/metal venues。

布赖顿火车站,伦敦—布赖顿铁路建于1840年,1970年在旧城改造中被拯救下来。车站提供快速和frequent 联系,与伦敦 Gatwick 机场,维多利亚车站 (伦敦)、伦敦桥车站,经Thameslink线,国王十字车站、伦敦 Luton 机场和贝德福德。还开通了到伯明翰新街、苏格兰格拉斯哥、经布里斯托尔到威尔士Tenby的班机。今天去伦敦维多利亚的快车需要51分钟,1910年需要60分钟,1859年需要80分钟,1841年需要2个小时。
