Journey Information: Gatwick to Brighton
The drive from Gatwick to Brighton covers around 30 miles and typically takes 45–60 minutes via the A23 and M23, though this can extend to 75–90 minutes during weekday rush hour or on busy summer weekends when coastal traffic builds. Our drivers monitor live traffic conditions and will use the A27 or local diversions when the A23 corridor is congested near Pyecombe or Patcham.
For the smoothest journey, early morning arrivals and mid-week travel tend to see noticeably lighter traffic than Friday evenings or Sunday returns. For live flight information, terminal maps and security wait times, the official Gatwick Airport website is a helpful resource before you fly.
If you’re travelling during the Brighton Festival, Pride or another major coastal event, it’s worth building in extra time either side of your journey, since both the A23 approach and Brighton’s city-centre streets can see heavier congestion than usual. Our drivers keep an eye on known event dates and will suggest an adjusted pickup window where it helps.
