The area known as the Crumbles, a shingle bank on the coast to the east of the town centre was redeveloped in the 1990s to build a marina, shops, and several thousand houses, along with luxury flats and apartments. Now known as Sovereign Harbour, the area was formerly home to many species of rare plants. At the western shore of the Inner Harbour (Image]) is the Waterfront area with its restaurants, bars and coffee shops.
