Map of the UK

North Hayling is the northern end of Hayling Island, part of the borough of Havant in Hampshire, England. It faces the sheltered waters and mudflats of Langstone Harbour, so the area is notable for saltmarshes, birdwatching and coastal walks rather than big sandy beaches; the former railway line now forms the popular Hayling Billy Trail along the harbour side.

Historically the island’s economy leaned on fishing, oysters and small-scale boatbuilding, and today the north end combines that maritime heritage with tourism, local services and a commuter link to Portsmouth and Chichester. The community tends to be a mix of long‑term residents and holiday homeowners, giving North Hayling a low‑key seaside character and a focus on outdoor activities and wildlife conservation.
