Chichester Coastal Attractions & Accommodation

The coastline around Chichester has a blue flag beach, busy marinas and watersports galore. Visit Selsey, popular with families in the summer and perfect for a bracing walk in winter. The Lifeboat Station and its museum depict the daring rescues of the RNLI and you might even see the launch of the lifeboat! Hang out with surfers and supermodels at chic West Wittering, picnic on the sandy beaches of Bracklesham Bay and walk around East Head’s wild and unspoilt grassy sand dunes, a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Take to the water in spectacular Chichester Harbour, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, busy with dinghies, sleek yachts and gleaming motorboats.

Treat yourself to a taste of the sea at restaurants, seafront cafés and pubs serving fresh locally caught fish – depending on the season, Selsey crab, shellfish and lobster or eat piping hot fish ‘n’ chips walking on the beach at dusk.

If you love wildlife and bird watching, this coast is a haven for birds and animals. Take a walk around tranquil Pagham Harbour Nature Reserve, home to all kinds of creatures including kestrels, barn owls and oystercatchers, weasels and voles, and butterflies and dragonflies in the summer.
