Overview

Lovely linear coastal walk from Hayling Island to Havant.  

Meet at Havant Bus Station to catch bus to Beachlands on Hayling Island and then coastal walk back to Havant.

There will be a pub stop towards the end of the walk at the iconic Royal Oak in Langstone, before relatively short walk back to Havant (for anyone in a hurry and doesn't wish to stop at pub, directions back to Havant will be provided).

Extremely flat, there maybe a little mud, but not like some of the recent walks.
