   I visited here in April 2025. A peaceful canal with a towpath you can walk along.

   We had a nice day out in Chichester and visited the Ship Canal. We were excited to the a boat ride and support this great cause. Despite the fact that the setting for the experience are nice, the boat ride could do with a bit more. Some basic commentary about the history of the canal and some facts about nature would be appreciated. As a result of lack of engagement during the ride, whole felt a bit flat and long (and boring).

   Lovely chugging along the canal, looking at all the ducks and ducklings and not forgetting the swans and signets. Very peaceful and relaxing. Lovely little cafe and seating looking over the canal.

   Peqceful 4 mile walk from the Basin to the marina (1 ½ hours), perfect for walking (dogs included, on leads) & bike riding, spots for fishing Can see the Cathedral from a few places, a couple of roads to cross Cafe at the Basin, comes in handy Close to the train & bus station 12 checkpoints (12 couldn't be found), but by the time you reach the marina, you're basically at the end Swans, ducks & moorhens scattered across the canal

   We had a fun, inexpensive day out for my husband's birthday. It was a lovely and relaxing little cruise along the Canal on a beautiful sunny day. The staff on the boat were friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the Canal.

   Absolutely stunning. We had a Valentines cruise along the canal, the weather was marvellous our host, in particular, Malcolm, who was full of knowledge and humour for our trip which lasted approximately 2 hours. So lovely and well worth a visit.

   Very serene location for a paddle or a walk along the towpath....but if there for a paddle ensure you get a yearly licence from the cafe located at the Chichester basin.

   Had a lovely trip down the canal and enjoyed seeing the wildlife. The 2 gentlemen were very knowledgeable and pointed out all the points of interest as we went. Which was very interesting. We will definitely go again and plan to try the fish and chips or a cream tea next time
