When I visited Pagham Harbour on Tuesday I visited the full revere; walking first from the visitors centre to the Ferry Pool and then along the path, south of the Ferry Channel, to Church Norton, then on to Church Norton Spit. I then walked back to the Ferry Pool and then walked down the north side of the Ferry Channel to Sidlesham Quay; then via Halsey Farm to the North Wall. I walked up the Owl Copse path to Church Farm, then walked back down to North Wall, and walked to Salthouse. I there turned round and walked back view the North Wall and Sidlesham Quay to the visitors centre. Route marked in green on this map pagham-map.pdf (rspb.org.uk)
