Weather and Webcam

We have a weather station that runs separately to this website that can be found at felphamweather.co.uk.  The most recent summary from the site ‘should’ be shown below:

The felphamweather.co.uk website contains more comprehensive weather information including tide details, weather graphs, barometer readings and more.

We also have a webcam pointing at the beach directly in front of the club – feel free to watch the sailing, check the tide or just see what’s happening on Felpham beach.
