West Itchenor is a compact coastal village on the western shore of Chichester Harbour, within the district of Chichester in West Sussex, England. Its sheltered creek, saltmarshes and mudflats form part of the harbour’s protected landscape, giving the village a quietly maritime character and excellent opportunities for sailing and birdwatching.
With roots stretching back to the medieval period, West Itchenor has a long seafaring and boatbuilding tradition and today is best known for its yacht moorings, small boatyards and an active sailing community; the local economy leans towards leisure and tourism rather than industry. The population is small and community-minded, and the village draws visitors and holiday homeowners who come for the scenery, watersports and peaceful coastal way of life.
