Pagham Beach — Attraction in Arun

A beautiful spot along the coast. Took our paddleboards down for an early morning cruise followed by a walk along the beach while the tide was out exploring the rock pools. Even saw 4 swans gliding along the sea, which is a first for us!

The carpark is conveniently located a short walk away from the beach with access to a cafe, ice creamery and arcade if needed. During peak season, they charge £3 to park your car there all day which is very reasonable!

We enjoyed a yummy breakfast which we did as takeaway to sit on the beachfront to enjoy! After our walk along the beach, we headed back to the cafe for lunch and sat outside in the sun! The food at the cafe was delicious and the staff were...

Pagham Beach gets 5 stars from me as it's a beautifully peaceful place to relax and spend some time by the sea.

If you're looking for a pleasure beach or sandy beach then this isn't the place. However, if you want somewhere quiet to relax and watch the world go by, then Pagham Beach is certainly the place for you.

It has a fish and chip shop\cafe and an ice cream shop that also sells and range of other snacks and drinks and fun stuff for on the beach (balls, buckets, inflatables). These places are all just a minutes walk from the beach. There is also a co-op just a few minutes walk from the beach.

Oh and one last but important thing... It has some...

Lovely little beach. Very pebbly and will need flip flops, crocs or sliders to wear on pebbles . Stones really hurt your feet, very painful. Some sand further out when tide is out, but mostly pebbles and rocks. Kids loved it. Paddling on body boards and inflatables. Not very busy. Ice cream shop £3 a scoop! Little shop selling beach stuff, inflatables, flip flops etc.. Good fish and chip shop /cafe. Little bit pricey. £5 for kids fish and chips. Smallish portion. Co-op shop too nearby. Can get ice-creams (Hagen Das) £3 for 4. cheaper!!! Overall great afternoon spent at Pagham beach with friends! Take a good picnic to feed hungry kids...
