The parish of Chidham and Hambrook sits on a low-lying peninsula beside Chichester Harbour in the district of Chichester, West Sussex, England. The landscape is a mix of arable fields, grazing marsh, saltmarsh and winding creeks, making it popular with birdwatchers, sailors and people seeking quiet coastal walks.
Both villages have long histories visible in their churches and scattered farmsteads, while today the local economy remains largely rural with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Community life is focused on village halls, local pubs and sailing clubs, and the area's conservation importance is underlined by the harbour's designation as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and its SSSI interest, with the South Downs not far to the north.
