Lttlehampton and up the river Arun

We are heading to Littlehampton tomorrow just wondered if you can go into Littlehampton and go up the river to Arundel at any tide? Any advice appreciated.

There always seem to be plenty of boats at Arundel, it's 4.5nm from Littlehampton if it helps and I'm pretty sure there is a slip at Ford so you should get that far at least. Would be interesting to hear how it goes.

Yes you can launch at any tide. At a low you would probably want a 4x4 to launch or retrieve as the concrete on the slip doesn't go all the way down. I will be testing my jet rib down there about 3pm.

If you go past arundel you can sometimes beach it at a pub called the black rabbit about 2 miles up from arundel.
