Property in Selsey. Due to the way Selsey has developed over the last few hundred years each point of the compass has its own unique style of home. In the north-eastern quarter you'll find an even spread of both 1970's homes (houses and bungalows) and period properties. The north-western quarter has a higher density of 1970's properties interspersed with large semi-rural homes around the perimeter. The old town lies in the South East of Selsey offering many charming and characterful properties including thatched homes built as far back as the 17th century. Drift further to the West and you'll find many sizeable secluded detached seafront homes, often with stunning uninterrupted views.

Scuba Diving. Selsey provides an ideal base for anyone interested in scuba diving or snorkelling with some of the best diving anywhere in the UK. Marine life thrives here and there are over one hundred wrecks to explore. Mulberry Divers is an international dive centre and offers tuition and training to beginners and advanced divers alike.

Local events. Residents of Selsey enjoy community life with a whole host of local events, most notably Selsey's three week festival with takes place each August and culminates with a carnival procession through the town.
