Rustington is a large coastal village in the district of Arun, West Sussex, England, lying on the south coast between Littlehampton and Worthing. It has a long shingle beach and seafront greens, a pleasant high street and a conservation area with several listed buildings and traditional thatched cottages that hint at its medieval origins.

The village is known for active local groups, seasonal community events and a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere that attracts both young families and retirees.
