This camera looks out over the Fishbourne Channel, a tidal waterway on the edge of Chichester Harbour. It is useful for anyone who wants to see how the water and sky look on this part of the West Sussex coast before heading out. The live player is paired with local time and a weather forecast.
Chichester sits a few miles inland from the English Channel, and its harbour is a large, shallow inlet of mudflats, creeks and saltmarsh. Fishbourne lies on the western side, where small boats moor in the channel and the Roman Palace at Fishbourne is one of the area's best-known sites. The flat, open landscape gives the coast a wide sky and an ever-changing light over the water.
Because this is a channel view, the most interesting moments tend to come with the tide. As the water rises and falls, the mudflats appear and disappear, and boats swing on their moorings with the current. Clear, calm days in spring and summer show the most detail, while low winter light can make the scene more atmospheric. Depending on the view, you may also see birds feeding along the shoreline.
The Sussex coast has mild, fairly wet winters and warm, pleasant summers, so late spring and early autumn are often the most comfortable times to visit. If you want to compare conditions, VizCams also lists the Bognor Regis Pier, the Thorney Island and Emsworth cameras, and the Littlehampton Beach camera, all within roughly 10 to 17 km along the same stretch of coast.
