Hayling Island, Coastal island in Havant, England
The island spans 30 square kilometers, featuring three miles of beaches along the Solent with both shingle and sandy sections near Langstone Harbor.
Archaeological excavations revealed an Iron Age shrine that transformed into a Roman temple during the first century BC, yielding numerous artifacts including Commius coins.
St Peter's Church, constructed upon the Northwode Chapel by Norman monks around 1140, contains a yew tree estimated to be over one thousand years old.
Visitors access the island via road bridge from Langstone or through the Hayling Ferry service connecting to Eastney, Portsmouth throughout the day.
The West Winner sandbank extends one mile into Hayling Bay, creating natural protection from large waves and establishing conditions for water sports activities.
