Although one of the largest marinas in the UK, with nearly 1,100 berths, Chichester remains a peaceful, rural setting and one of outstanding natural beauty. There is 24-hour access via the lock with a new outer waiting pontoon from the Itchenor Channel. A full range of marine services, chandlery, restaurant and a small shop are available on site. There is also a wide variety of interesting attractions and activities available in the surrounding area, including the city of Chichester itself, with its cathedral, theatre and myriad restaurants, bars and shops.
