Selsey, Coastal town on the Manhood Peninsula, West Sussex, England
Located at the southernmost point of the Manhood Peninsula, Selsey extends into the English Channel with beaches on three sides and a single road connection.
The area contains archaeological evidence from the Stone Age, including Palaeolithic implements and coins from the Atrebates tribe discovered on the beach.
The fishing industry remains central to local identity, with boats regularly bringing fresh catches, particularly the regional speciality Selsey Crab, to East Beach.
The B2145 road provides the sole vehicular access to Selsey, with regular bus services connecting to Chichester, located eight miles to the north.
The town experiences some of the highest sunshine duration in England and maintains two nature reserves, Pagham Harbour and RSPB Medmerry, for wildlife observation.
