Three women have been found dead in the sea off Brighton Beach after emergency services were called to the seafront near Madeira Drive in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Sussex Police said the bodies were recovered after concerns were raised for the welfare of women in the water.
Officers are now working to identify the women, contact their families and establish exactly what happened.
Police described the deaths as a tragic incident and said enquiries are continuing.
The beach has since reopened, and officers have urged the public to avoid speculation while the investigation remains ongoing.
