Littlehampton Lifeboat Station
Littlehampton has two lifeboats, an Atlantic 75 ‘Blue Peter 1', and a D-Class inshore lifeboat ‘Spirit of Juniper'.
Both live in their shiny new boathouse, and are launched by tractor from the slipway at Fisherman's Quay, next to the Lok and Sea Visitor Centre.
The crew exercise every Sunday morning and on alternate Thursday evenings, so Sundays are the best day to visit the boathouse if you want to see our lifeboats.
Please visit the website or give the station a call for further information.
Group Tours can be arranged for school, youth or adult groups. Please call: 01903 242397 or 07515 952582 or email boathousevisits@littlehamptonlifeboat.co.uk.
