Chichester Canal

Highlight • Trail

At four miles long, the Chichester Canal is a serene way to walk between the town of Chichester and its marina in the harbour. It was built in the 1820s, during which a haul of 300 Roman coins were unearthed.

Lily Pad Waterway Trail

Highlight • Trail

This section is slippy and narrow. I fell twice and almost ended up in the water once!

Chichester Marina

Highlight • Rest Area

Chichester Marina is wonderfully scenic, encapsulating the boating beauty of the south coast of England. The Boathouse Cafe sits on the waterside if you're looking to refuel in a tranquil setting.
