Learning to Drive in Littlehampton

Lessons often include the A259 seafront and the Arun Bridge, so you'll get practice on both straight coastal roads and tighter town junctions. Traffic picks up in summer, which affects lesson times and test-day travel. With a small pool of local instructors, you may need to book ahead.

Worthing's pass rate is 46.6%, Data source: DVSA 2024-2025. You may have to drive to Worthing for your practical test and plan extra travel time.

Local Driving Tips
Start lessons on quieter residential streets before moving to the A259 seafront. Practice crossing Arun Bridge and turning at the A284 junction, where traffic can be unpredictable. Spend time on the roundabout at the A259/A284 junction and on dual carriageway merges near the town outskirts. Time lessons to avoid summer weekend traffic if possible.
Choosing an Instructor in Littlehampton
Look for an instructor who knows Littlehampton's test routes, including the seafront and Arun crossings. Check recent reviews and ask about mock tests at Worthing if your test will be there. Expect to pay around the local average of 34 per hour, and book early since there are nine local instructors. Ask whether lessons include motorway or dual carriageway practice if you want that experience.

Local lessons average 34 per hour. Costs vary with instructor experience, fuel prices, and whether you want intensive or weekday lessons. Travel to Worthing for tests can add transport costs.
Getting Started
Apply for your provisional licence before booking lessons or the theory test. Book your theory test early so you can take it while lessons are ongoing. Arrange regular lessons that cover town centre driving, the A259, and routes to Worthing for the practical test. When ready, book the practical test at Worthing and allow time to travel there on the day.
