Littlehampton: The Shore That Won't Stay Still
Littlehampton may look like a familiar seaside town, but its shoreline is constantly changing. In this episode of Creative Connections, we explore the West Sussex coast where the River Arun meets the sea — from shingle and sand to dunes, groynes, rock pools, Winkle Island and the exposed chalk near West Beach.
A short journey into coastal movement, hidden geology, and the restless shore beneath our feet.
