Map of the UK

Pagham is a coastal ward in Arun, West Sussex, England, set around a small village and sandy shoreline backed by saltmarsh and reedbeds. Its most distinctive feature is Pagham Harbour, an important nature reserve and RSPB site of mudflats and lagoons that attracts waders, wildfowl and seals and gives the area a strong conservation character.

Historically a modest fishing and sailing community, Pagham now combines local shops, holiday accommodation and small-scale leisure boating with agriculture on the surrounding lowlands. The ward has a mixed population of long-term residents, retirees and holiday homeowners, and local life is shaped by conservation groups, coastal change and a steady seasonal boost from visitors to nearby Bognor Regis and Chichester.
