Ten people have now died in just two weeks at Beachy Head in East Sussex, police have confirmed, after the discovery of three bodies.
The remains of seven people in total were found last week, including a mother and her son.
Sussex police said the three men were all found near the bottom of the 500 foot drop near Eastbourne, on Monday morning.
A spokesman said: ‘At 9.53am on Monday (25 June), police received a report of a person falling from Beachy Head, near Eastbourne.
‘The coastguard was contacted and the body of a man, believed to be in his 40s, was recovered from the foot of the cliffs.
‘Subsequently two further bodies were found in the same area – one at 12.10pm when a man’s body was recovered from the sea at Holywell and another, also a man, shortly after 2pm at Beachy Head.’
The men’s deaths are not being treated as suspicious, and officers do not believe them to be linked.

Last week, remains of two men in their 20s were recovered from the bottom of the cliffs . Their deaths, on Tuesday evening, are not thought to be linked.
One of the men may have been a suicide tourist who travelled to the UK to end their life at the world famous cliffs, it was claimed.

The dog walkers discovered a bag containing the travel documents and a mobile phone as emergency services searched the clifftops.
The passport and plane ticket from Norway were in the bag near the edge on Tuesday night where Kienan Connolly and his friend Jake Taylor were walking their dogs.
Mr Taylor found the bag and his friend Kienan posted on Facebook: ‘We thought a tourist might’ve lost their belongings as we found a passport and a one way flight ticket from Norway to England.
‘We then see if his phone was unlocked to see if anyone was trying to ring or message the phone and the first thing that was open on his phone, was his Facebook page with a picture of Beachy Head saying ‘This Spot marks our grave, but you may rest here’.’
Sussex police said no formal identification of either body found at the foot of the cliffs on Tuesday has taken place.
It comes after Cheryl Tompsett, 42, and her five-year-old son Leo, both from Maidstone, Kent, were found after a suspected murder-suicide one week ago.

‘We all miss him an amount beyond what anyone else can imagine and would request that our privacy is respected at this very difficult time.’

Emergency services were alerted last Wednesday, and with assistance from the Eastbourne RNLI inshore lifeboat recovered the body of a 58-year-old man from London.
Shortly after 5pm, while this was in progress, a second, badly decomposed body, believed to be that of a woman, was found nearby.
Then some 40 minutes later a third body, believed to be that of another man from London, was discovered some distance away. Sussex police said they are also not linked.
