About Chichester Harbour
Chichester Harbour, based on the South coast, is one of 38 of the UK’s National Landscapes (new name for all Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty). An important wildlife site, the harbour is enjoyed by water-users, walkers and cyclists. As a stunning natural environment it offers breath-taking landscapes, peace and tranquility and a number of different habitats for birds, seals and other wildlife.
Our solar-powered boat is virtually silent, minimising disturbance to marine life and maximising your enjoyment of the peace and beauty of Chichester Harbour.
We are an accredited wildlife safe operator. Photographs of seals and birds used on this site are taken at distance using a zoom lens to avoid disturbance.
