Sinah Common, Hayling Island

Leader: Andy Swan (HNHS Member)
The coastal shingle and dunes show various stages of colonisation by plant communities. There are specialist plants, fungi and insects, and this is also a good site for migrant birds.

Directions: From the south end of the A3, follow signs to Hayling Island to the A27 and then A3023. Head south to the end of the road at the coast, then turn west towards the ferry. At the end of the road turn sharp left in front of the buoys, then bear left past the café to the long car park: we will meet at the far end of the car park. Payment is required; cards accepted.

Travel Update – Please be advised:

Your route to Hayling Island on Saturday may be affected by the closure of the A27 eastbound. From the A3-A27 junction, the official diversion is via Bedhampton, which is not much extra distance, but it is sure to be congested. Anyone heading down the A3 will probably do better to exit on the B2149 then head to Havant, from where the southerly route under the A27 to the A3023 and the Island should be OK.

The westbound A27 is not affected, so the route via Chichester is an alternative.
