Aldwick is a coastal parish on the south coast in the district of Arun, West Sussex, England, sitting beside Bognor Regis and overlooking the English Channel. Its shoreline and promenade, stretches of sandy beach and a mix of Victorian and Edwardian villas alongside later suburban housing give it a strong seaside character, with nearby wetland and reserve country at Pagham adding a quieter, more natural edge.
Locally it is largely residential with a community centred on shops, churches and leisure facilities, while tourism and services linked to neighbouring Bognor Regis help the economy. A memorable piece of history is that King George V convalesced at Craigweil House in the area in 1929, an event closely tied to Bognor Regis gaining its "Regis" suffix; today the parish has a mix of retirees and families and an active community life.
