Selsey South sits on the southern edge of Selsey in Chichester, West Sussex, occupying a coastal strip of the Manhood Peninsula that faces the English Channel and the landmark Selsey Bill. It has a strong seaside character with beaches, a small harbour and an RNLI lifeboat presence, making maritime life and navigation part of the everyday scene.
Locally the economy blends fishing, small-scale tourism and services for a significant retired population, while nearby saltmarshes and reserves such as Pagham Harbour make it popular with birdwatchers. There’s a long history too - the town nearby was once the seat of an early Saxon bishopric before the move to Chichester - and the community remains active around coastal issues, local events and conservation.
