About

A site of special scientific interest West Beach is home to one of only 3 sand dune systems in West Sussex. Well known for its laid back atmosphere West Beach is a great spot to relax with a picnic, on clear days you can enjoy views of neighbouring Bognor and even the Isle of Wight. It's much quieter than the East beach just on the other side of the river Arun. 

West Beach can be accessed by car or by foot across the red bridge opposite the station. From the bridge it is a 15 minute walk along the river to reach the beach.  

West Beach is also home to the award winning West Beach Café, the ruins of the Littlehampton Napoleonic Fort and if you look hard enough you might find some fossils.

There is a small chargeable car park and public toilets. Dogs are allowed and there is no lifeguard on duty.
