Sailing Experiences in Chichester Harbour

Take the helm on a historic sailing boat!

Join an exclusive sailing experience in Chichester Harbour on the restored 1895 Oyster Boat Terror. Once used to transfer oysters ashore from larger boats in the harbour, Terror is now used exclusively for leisure trips between May and September. Perfect for small groups or an unforgettable family trip, passengers are encouraged to take the helm and experience the thrill of sailing a traditional gaff-rigged boat.

  • Trips welcome just 6 passengers at a time, lasting 2-3 hours
  • Sailings mainly depart from Emsworth Yacht Harbour (Itchenor from end June until early July 2025)
  • Full support of knowledgeable crew

Terror is a non-profit making venture, run by volunteers from the charity Friends of Chichester Harbour.
